810 (b) WORKSHEET KEY:
811
812 Legal status points are assessed when any form of legal status
813 existed at the time the offender committed an offense before the
814 court for sentencing. Four (4) sentence points are assessed for
815 an offender’s legal status.
816
817 Community sanction violation points are assessed when a
818 community sanction violation is before the court for sentencing.
819 Six (6) sentence points are assessed for each community sanction
820 violation and each successive community sanction violation,
821 unless any of the following apply:
822 1. If the community sanction violation includes a new
823 felony conviction before the sentencing court, twelve (12)
824 community sanction violation points are assessed for the
825 violation, and for each successive community sanction violation
826 involving a new felony conviction.
827 2. If the community sanction violation is committed by a
828 violent felony offender of special concern as defined in s.
829 948.06:
830 a. Twelve (12) community sanction violation points are
831 assessed for the violation and for each successive violation of
832 felony probation or community control where:
833 I. The violation does not include a new felony conviction;
834 and
835 II. The community sanction violation is not based solely on
836 the probationer or offender’s failure to pay costs or fines or
837 make restitution payments.
838 b. Twenty-four (24) community sanction violation points are
839 assessed for the violation and for each successive violation of
840 felony probation or community control where the violation
841 includes a new felony conviction.
842
843 Multiple counts of community sanction violations before the
844 sentencing court shall not be a basis for multiplying the
845 assessment of community sanction violation points.
846
847 Prior serious felony points: If the offender has a primary
848 offense or any additional offense ranked in level 8, level 9, or
849 level 10, and one or more prior serious felonies, a single
850 assessment of thirty (30) points shall be added. For purposes of
851 this section, a prior serious felony is an offense in the
852 offender’s prior record that is ranked in level 8, level 9, or
853 level 10 under s. 921.0022 or s. 921.0023 and for which the
854 offender is serving a sentence of confinement, supervision, or
855 other sanction or for which the offender’s date of release from
856 confinement, supervision, or other sanction, whichever is later,
857 is within 3 years before the date the primary offense or any
858 additional offense was committed.
859
860 Prior capital felony points: If the offender has one or more
861 prior capital felonies in the offender’s criminal record, points
862 shall be added to the subtotal sentence points of the offender
863 equal to twice the number of points the offender receives for
864 the primary offense and any additional offense. A prior capital
865 felony in the offender’s criminal record is a previous capital
866 felony offense for which the offender has entered a plea of nolo
867 contendere or guilty or has been found guilty; or a felony in
868 another jurisdiction which is a capital felony in that
869 jurisdiction, or would be a capital felony if the offense were
870 committed in this state.
871
872 Possession of a firearm, semiautomatic firearm, or machine gun:
873 If the offender is convicted of committing or attempting to
874 commit any felony other than those enumerated in s. 775.087(2)
875 while having in his or her possession: a firearm as defined in
876 s. 790.001(6), an additional eighteen (18) sentence points are
877 assessed; or if the offender is convicted of committing or
878 attempting to commit any felony other than those enumerated in
879 s. 775.087(3) while having in his or her possession a
880 semiautomatic firearm as defined in s. 775.087(3) or a machine
881 gun as defined in s. 790.001(9), an additional twenty-five (25)
882 sentence points are assessed.
883
884 Sentencing multipliers:
885
886 Drug trafficking: If the primary offense is drug trafficking
887 under s. 893.135, the subtotal sentence points are multiplied,
888 at the discretion of the court, for a level 7 or level 8
889 offense, by 1.5. The state attorney may move the sentencing
890 court to reduce or suspend the sentence of a person convicted of
891 a level 7 or level 8 offense, if the offender provides
892 substantial assistance as described in s. 893.135(4).
893
894 Law enforcement protection: If the primary offense is a
895 violation of the Law Enforcement Protection Act under s.
896 775.0823(2), (3), or (4), the subtotal sentence points are
897 multiplied by 2.5. If the primary offense is a violation of s.
898 775.0823(5), (6), (7), (8), or (9), the subtotal sentence points
899 are multiplied by 2.0. If the primary offense is a violation of
900 s. 784.07(3) or s. 775.0875(1), or of the Law Enforcement
901 Protection Act under s. 775.0823(10) or (11), the subtotal
902 sentence points are multiplied by 1.5.
903
904 Grand theft of a motor vehicle: If the primary offense is grand
905 theft of the third degree involving a motor vehicle and in the
906 offender’s prior record, there are three or more grand thefts of
907 the third degree involving a motor vehicle, the subtotal
908 sentence points are multiplied by 1.5.
909
910 Offense related to a criminal gang: If the offender is convicted
911 of the primary offense and committed that offense for the
912 purpose of benefiting, promoting, or furthering the interests of
913 a criminal gang as defined in s. 874.03, the subtotal sentence
914 points are multiplied by 1.5. If applying the multiplier results
915 in the lowest permissible sentence exceeding the statutory
916 maximum sentence for the primary offense under chapter 775, the
917 court may not apply the multiplier and must sentence the
918 defendant to the statutory maximum sentence.
919
920 Domestic violence in the presence of a child: If the offender is
921 convicted of the primary offense and the primary offense is a
922 crime of domestic violence, as defined in s. 741.28, which was
923 committed in the presence of a child under 16 years of age who
924 is a family or household member as defined in s. 741.28(3) with
925 the victim or perpetrator, the subtotal sentence points are
926 multiplied by 1.5.
927
928 Adult-on-minor sex offense: If the offender was 18 years of age
929 or older and the victim was younger than 18 years of age at the
930 time the offender committed the primary offense, and if the
931 primary offense was an offense committed on or after October 1,
932 2014, and is a violation of s. 787.01(2) or s. 787.02(2), if the
933 violation involved a victim who was a minor and, in the course
934 of committing that violation, the defendant committed a sexual
935 battery under chapter 794 or a lewd act under s. 800.04 or s.
936 847.0135(5) against the minor; s. 787.01(3)(a)2. or 3.; s.
937 787.02(3)(a)2. or 3.; s. 794.011, excluding s. 794.011(10); s.
938 800.04; or s. 847.0135(5), the subtotal sentence points are
939 multiplied by 2.0. If applying the multiplier results in the
940 lowest permissible sentence exceeding the statutory maximum
941 sentence for the primary offense under chapter 775, the court
942 may not apply the multiplier and must sentence the defendant to
943 the statutory maximum sentence.
944 (2) The lowest permissible sentence is the minimum sentence
945 that may be imposed by the trial court, absent a valid reason
946 for departure. The lowest permissible sentence is any nonstate
947 prison sanction in which the total sentence points equals or is
948 less than 44 points, unless the court determines within its
949 discretion that a prison sentence, which may be up to the
950 statutory maximums for the offenses committed, is appropriate.
951 When the total sentence points exceeds 44 points, the lowest
952 permissible sentence in prison months shall be calculated by
953 subtracting 28 points from the total sentence points and
954 decreasing the remaining total by 25 percent. The total sentence
955 points shall be calculated only as a means of determining the
956 lowest permissible sentence. The permissible range for
957 sentencing shall be the lowest permissible sentence up to and
958 including the statutory maximum, as defined in s. 775.082, for
959 the primary offense and any additional offenses before the court
960 for sentencing. The sentencing court may impose such sentences
961 concurrently or consecutively. However, any sentence to state
962 prison must exceed 1 year. If the lowest permissible sentence
963 under the code exceeds the statutory maximum sentence as
964 provided in s. 775.082, the sentence required by the code must
965 be imposed. If the total sentence points are greater than or
966 equal to 363, the court may sentence the offender to life
967 imprisonment. An offender sentenced to life imprisonment under
968 this section is not eligible for any form of discretionary early
969 release, except executive clemency or conditional medical
970 release under s. 947.149.
971 (3) A single scoresheet shall be prepared for each
972 defendant to determine the permissible range for the sentence
973 that the court may impose, except that if the defendant is
974 before the court for sentencing for more than one felony and the
975 felonies were committed under more than one version or revision
976 of the guidelines or the code, separate scoresheets must be
977 prepared. The scoresheet or scoresheets must cover all the
978 defendant’s offenses pending before the court for sentencing.
979 The state attorney shall prepare the scoresheet or scoresheets,
980 which must be presented to the defense counsel for review for
981 accuracy in all cases unless the judge directs otherwise. The
982 defendant’s scoresheet or scoresheets must be approved and
983 signed by the sentencing judge.
984 (4) The Department of Corrections, in consultation with the
985 Office of the State Courts Administrator, state attorneys, and
986 public defenders, must develop and submit the revised Criminal
987 Punishment Code scoresheet to the Supreme Court for approval by
988 June 15 of each year, as necessary. Upon the Supreme Court’s
989 approval of the revised scoresheet, the Department of
990 Corrections shall produce and provide sufficient copies of the
991 revised scoresheets by September 30 of each year, as necessary.
992 Scoresheets must include item entries for the scoresheet
993 preparer’s use in indicating whether any prison sentence imposed
994 includes a mandatory minimum sentence or the sentence imposed
995 was a downward departure from the lowest permissible sentence
996 under the Criminal Punishment Code.
997 (5) The Department of Corrections shall distribute
998 sufficient copies of the Criminal Punishment Code scoresheets to
999 those persons charged with the responsibility for preparing
1000 scoresheets.
1001 (6) The clerk of the circuit court shall transmit a
1002 complete, accurate, and legible copy of the Criminal Punishment
1003 Code scoresheet used in each sentencing proceeding to the
1004 Department of Corrections. Scoresheets must be transmitted no
1005 less frequently than monthly, by the first of each month, and
1006 may be sent collectively.
1007 (7) A sentencing scoresheet must be prepared for every
1008 defendant who is sentenced for a felony offense. A copy of the
1009 individual offender’s Criminal Punishment Code scoresheet and
1010 any attachments thereto prepared pursuant to Rule 3.701, Rule
1011 3.702, or Rule 3.703, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, or
1012 any other rule pertaining to the preparation and submission of
1013 felony sentencing scoresheets, must be attached to the copy of
1014 the uniform judgment and sentence form provided to the
1015 Department of Corrections.
1016 Section 10. Paragraph (e) is added to subsection (4) of
1017 section 944.275, Florida Statutes, to read:
1018 944.275 Gain-time.—

1023 violation of s. 782.04(1)(a)2.c.; s. 787.01(3)(a)2. or 3.; s.
1024 787.02(3)(a)2. or 3.; s. 794.011, excluding s. 794.011(10); s.

1125 the evaluation process, the court shall require sexual offender
1126 treatment as a term or condition of probation or community

1132 whether such probationer or community controllee needs sexual
1133 offender treatment. If the qualified practitioner determines
1134 that sexual offender treatment is needed and recommends
1135 treatment, the probationer or community controllee must
1136 successfully complete and pay for the treatment. Such treatment
1137 must shall be required to be obtained from a qualified
1138 practitioner as defined in s. 948.001. Treatment may not be
