Amendments to Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure—Rule 3.852 (Capital Postconviction Public Records Production) & Rule 3.993 (Related Forms) , 23 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 478 ( 1998 )

PER CURIAM.

In 1996, this Court, on its own motion, promulgated new Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.852 to govern public records requests in capital postconviction proceedings. In re Amendment to Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure—Capital Postconviction Public Records Production, 683 So.2d 475 (Fla.1996). This Court established a Special Committee on Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.852, which was charged with the responsibility of creating proposed forms and amendments to the rule concerning the public records process for capital postconviction defendants. See Amendments to Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, 23 Fla. L. Weekly S363, 719 So.2d 869 (Fla.1998). Because of the 1998 Legislature’s repeal of rule 3.852, this Court expanded the Committee’s charge to include making recommendations as to procedures concerning chapter 98-198, section 1, Laws of Florida, which enacted a new section of the Public Records Law, to be codified as section 119.19, Florida Statutes (Supp.1998), which concerns public records production for capital postconviction defendants. 23 Fla. L. Weekly at S363, 719 So.2d at 869. We have. reviewed the Committee’s recommendations on an expedited basis to accommodate the October 1, 1998, effective date of the repeal of rule 3.852.

We hereby adopt on an emergency basis the Committee’s proposed rule 3.852 and the accompanying forms set forth in the attached appendix. These changes are effective October 1, 1998, at 12:01 a.m. Interested persons may file comments by December 1,1998. By this adoption of the rule, we express no opinion on the substance of the rule or chapter 98-198, § 1, Laws of Florida, or the merits of any matter concerning the rule or statute.

It is so ordered.

HARDING, C.J., and OVERTON, SHAW, KOGAN, WELLS, ANSTEAD and PARIENTE, JJ., concur.

(1) If the mandate affirming the defendant’s conviction and sentence of death was issued prior to October 1, 1998, and no initial public records requests have been made by collateral counsel by that date, the attorney general and the state attorney shall file notifications with the trial court as required by subdivisions (d) and (e) of this rule.

(2) If on October 1, 1998, a defendant is represented by collateral counsel and has initiated the public records process, collateral counsel shall, within 90 days of October 1, 1998, file with the trial court and serve a written demand for any additional public records that have not previously been the subject of a request for public records. A person or agency may object to any request under this subdivision, and the trial court shall hold a hearing and rule on the objection within 30 days after filing of the objection.

(3) If on October 1, 1998, the defendant has had a rule 3.850 or rule 3.851 motion denied and no rule 3.850 or rule 3.851 motion is pending, no additional public records request under this rule is permitted by collateral counsel until a death warrant has been signed by the Governor and an execution has been scheduled.

A person or agency shall produce any public record:

(A) that was not previously the subject of an objection;

(B) that was received or produced since the previous request; or

(C) that was, for any reason, not produced previously.

If none of these circumstances exist, the person or agency shall file with the trial court and the parties an affidavit stating that no other records exist and that all public records have been produced previously. A person or agency shall comply with this subdivision within 10 days from the date of the request or such shorter time period as is ordered by the court.

(i) Limitation on Postproduction Request for Additional Records.

(1) Collateral counsel is barred from making any further public records request under this rule upon:

(A) the production by a person or agency of all public records;

(B) the production by a person or agency of any additional public records; or

(C) the recertification by a person or agency that all public records have been transmitted to the records repository.

A person or agency is not required to produce any further records unless ordered to do so by the trial court.

(2) In order to obtain public records in addition to those provided by this rule, collateral counsel shall file an affidavit in the trial court which:

(A) attests that collateral counsel has made a timely and diligent search of the records repository; and

(B) identifies with specificity those public records not at the records repository; and

(C) establishes that the additional public records are either relevant to the subject matter of the postconviction proceeding or are reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence.

(3)Within 30 days after the affidavit of collateral counsel is filed, the trial court shall order a person or agency to produce additional public records only upon finding each of the following:

(A) collateral counsel has made a timely and diligent search of the records repository;

(B) collateral counsel’s affidavit identifies with specificity those additional public records that are not at the records repository;

(C) the additional public records sought are either relevant to the subject matter of a proceeding under rule 3.850 or rule 3.851 or appear reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence; and

(D) the additional records request is not overly broad or unduly burdensome.

(j) Copying of Public Records. Collateral counsel shall provide the personnel, supplies, and any necessary equipment to copy records held at the records repository.

(k) Authority of the Court. In proceedings under this rule the trial court may:

(l) compel or deny disclosure of records;

(2) conduct an in-camera inspection;

(3) extend the times in this rule upon a showing of good cause;

(4) impose sanctions upon any party, person, or agency affected by this rule including initiating contempt proceedings, taxing expenses, extending time, ordering facts to be established, and granting other relief; and

(5) resolve any dispute arising under this rule unless jurisdiction is in an appellate court.

(i) Requests by Others Precluded. Collateral counsel shall not solicit another person to make a request for public records on behalf of the capital postconviction defendant. The trial court shall impose appropriate sanctions against any collateral counsel violating this subdivision.

(m)Destruction of Records Repository Records. Sixty days after a capital sentence is carried out, after the defendant is released from incarceration following the granting of a pardon or reversal of the sentence, or after the defendant has been resentenced to a term of years, the attorney general shall provide written notification to the Secretary of State, who may then destroy the records held by the records repository that pertain to that case.
