In criminal defense, virtually every case hinges on the Fourth Amendment and whether law enforcement overstepped its bounds in gathering evidence against you. The constitutional test for justifying a search is a robust one: the totality of the circumstances. This means that courts must look at the “whole picture” of the facts leading to a search and seizure, avoiding reliance on any single, isolated fact.

HB 113 (House Bill 113 jargon for new law in Florida), effective in 2025, significantly increases penalties for anyone who fails to stop when directed by law enforcement.

Being charged with passing a worthless check, especially under WOCK3015 – Worthless Check (Business Account), is a serious matter in Florida. These cases often involve allegations that a business wrote a check without sufficient funds in its account, leading to possible misdemeanor or felony charges under Florida Statute 832.05. While some cases are misunderstandings, prosecutors can be aggressive in pursuing charges because they view them as both theft-related and fraudulent.

This delicate balance often comes into sharp focus during public meetings, where citizens exercise their right to voice concerns and engage with elected officials. A recent decision from Florida’s Second District Court of Appeal, Rodney Keith Jones v. State of Florida, shines a critical light on these fundamental rights, particularly concerning charges of disturbing a lawful assembly and resisting arrest.

In June 2025, the Florida Sixth District Court of Appeal reversed a county court ruling that had improperly evicted a domestic violence injunction holder from a shared residence. The core legal issue: Can a landlord evict someone when a circuit court has already granted that person exclusive possession of the home under a temporary domestic violence injunction?
