Harry Lee Coe, III, Chairman, Committee on Standard Jury Instructions (Criminal), Tampa, for petitioner.

PER CURIAM.

The Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions (Criminal) has submitted two petitions which propose amendments to the Florida Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases. The petitions are set forth below, and the exhibits referred to therein are appended to the end of this opinion:

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO FLORIDA STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES (88-1) ______________________________________

To: CHIEF JUSTICE AND JUSTICES OF THE SUPREME COURT OF FLORIDA

Your committee recommends the following revisions to the Florida Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases. Most of the proposed revisions are the same as those published in the January 1, 1988, issue of the Florida Bar News. A few changes have been made based on responses to the proposals as published, and some additional proposals that the committee believes are noncontroversial have been added. Following the order in which the instructions appear in The Florida Bar's jury instructions manual, the changes recommended and the reasons for the changes are provided below. To the extent possible, wording to be deleted is indicated by strike through marks and wording to be added is underlined.

1. Page 39 of the Bar's manual provides an instruction on entrapment. Chapter 87-243, Section 42, Laws of Florida, creates Section 777.201, Florida Statutes, which redefines the entrapment defense. Instructions incorporating the new law are provided in Exhibit 1. The new instruction is for offenses occurring on or after October 1, 1987. The committee decided to retain the current instruction for use when the offense occurred before October 1, 1987. An additional proposed change to both of the instructions is the addition of a definition of "predisposition." In particular, the court's attention to the final paragraph of the new instruction is requested.

2. Pages 45c and 45d of the manual provide the current instruction on justifiable use of force by law enforcement officers. Chapter 87-147, Laws of Florida, amends Section 776.05, Florida Statutes, to redefine justifiable use of force by an officer. A revised instruction to reflect the statutory change is provided in Exhibit 2.

3. Pages 77 through 82 of the manual provide instructions on penalty proceedings in capital cases. Chapter 87-368, Section 1, Laws of Florida, creates Section 921.141(5)(j), Florida Statutes, which provides an additional aggravating circumstance to be considered by the jury. The committee therefore proposes the addition of paragraph 10 to the list on pages 78 and 79 of the manual as follows:

10. The victim of the crime for which defendant is to be sentenced was a law enforcement officer engaged in the performance of the officer's official duties.

4. Page 97 of the manual provides for the offense of carrying concealed weapons. A change to paragraph 2 of that instruction is proposed as follows:

2. The (weapon alleged) was concealed from the ordinary sight of another person others who might casually observe the defendant.

Support for the current wording comes from Ensor v. State, 403 So. 2d 349, 354 (Fla. 1981), but the committee believes that the instruction should be amended to conform to the statutory definition of "concealed weapon" in Section 790.001(3)(a), Florida Statutes (1987).

5. Page 98 of the manual provides an instruction based on Section 790.05, Florida Statutes (1981). That law was repealed in 1987; therefore, the instruction should be removed. See Chapter 87-24, Laws of Florida.

6. Page 99 of the manual provides an instruction based on Section 790.07(1) and (2), Florida Statutes. A change in paragraph 1b is proposed as follows:

b. [carried a [weapon] [firearm], which was concealed from the ordinary sight of another person others who might casually observe him.]

The reason for this change is the same as the one in paragraph 4 above.

7. Page 102 provides an instruction on Section 790.15, Florida Statutes. The committee recommends amending paragraphs a and b of the instruction as follows:

a. [(Defendant) knowingly discharged a firearm in a public place.]

b. [(Defendant) knowingly discharged a firearm on the right of way of a paved road, highway or street.]

The word "knowingly" is included in paragraph c of the current instruction and should be inserted in paragraphs a and b as shown.

8. Regarding page 103 of the manual, paragraph 3b should be amended as follows:

b. [a disruption of governmental commerce.]

Although the wording of the Section 790.161, Florida Statutes, may be ambiguous, the committee believes that "governmental" modifies only "operations" and not "commerce."

9. Pages 111 and 112 provide instructions for Sections 790.221 and 790.23, Florida Statutes, respectively. The committee proposes the addition of a definition of "possess" to those instructions. The definition proposed is the same as the one used in the drug possession instructions. Exhibit 3 provides the full instructions with the definition of "possess" added. Paragraph 2 of the instruction on Section 790.23 also is amended to conform to the statute.

10. Page 147 provides an instruction on theft. Section 812.014, Florida Statutes, was amended by Chapter 87-376, Laws of Florida. A revised instruction to incorporate the changes in the law is provided in Exhibit 4.

11. The instructions on pages 150 and 151 cover dealing in stolen property. The effect of Section 812.028(3), Florida Statutes, is not provided for in the current instructions. The amendments shown in Exhibit 5 are intended to incorporate that statute.

12. The robbery instruction on page 155 of the manual needs to conform to Section 812.13, Florida Statutes, as amended by Chapter 87-315, Laws of Florida. Exhibit 6 provides the proposed instruction.

13. Pages 163 and 164 provide the instruction for contributing to delinquency and to dependency. The wording of the instruction on page 163 does not need to be revised. Most of the wording on page 164, however, is based on former delinquency and dependency definitions that have been revised several times. The committee intends to propose a revised instruction in the future but, for now, recommends the deletion of the instruction on page 164. Instead, a note should replace the instruction on that page as follows:

Note to Judge: Prepare the definition of "delinquency" or of "dependency" based on the statutory definitions in effect at the time of the alleged offense. See F.S. 39.01.

14. Page 216 provides an instruction on bookmaking. Section 849.25, Florida Statutes, was amended by Chapter 87-243, Section 48, Laws of Florida. A revised instruction incorporating the 1987 amendments is proposed. See Exhibit 7.

15. Pages 219 through 250 provide instructions for drug abuse and drug trafficking offenses under Chapter 893, Florida Statutes. Chapter 87-243, Laws of Florida, amends several statutes covered by those instructions. Revisions to the affected instructions are proposed. See Exhibit 8.

16. Currently there are no instructions for prosecutions under Chapter 895, Florida Statutes. Proposed instructions are provided in Exhibit 9.

17. Pages 261 and 262 provide a comment on the schedule of lesser included offenses. Based on changes in the law since 1981, the committee has revised the comment. See Exhibit 10 for the revised comment.

18. The "SCHEDULE OF LESSER INCLUDED OFFENSES" is provided on pages 263 through 284 of the manual. The committee has not reviewed each offense listed in the schedule in light of recent opinions that may affect the table. Nevertheless, some needed changes have been identified by the committee as shown in Exhibit 11.

Respectfully submitted, /s/ Harry Lee Coe III Harry Lee Coe, Chair PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO FLORIDA STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES (88-2) _________________________________________________________________

TO: CHIEF JUSTICE AND JUSTICES OF THE SUPREME COURT OF FLORIDA

Your committee met on November 18, 1988, to review 1988 legislation that affects the standard jury instructions. Several changes in the instructions are needed, and the committee believes they can be made without following the normal procedure of publishing proposed instructions in The Florida Bar News. The committee requests that those changes (provided below) be considered along with the proposals in the committee's previous report (88-1).

1. The aggravating circumstances for the jury to consider in a capital offense are provided on pages 78 and 79 of the manual. An instruction on a new circumstance is proposed in the previous report (88-1). Chapter 88-381, § 10, Laws of Florida, created Section 921.141(5)(k), a new aggravating circumstance. The committee, therefore, proposes adding another new paragraph as follows:

11. The victim of the crime for which the defendant is to be sentenced was an elected or appointed official engaged in the performance of his official duties and the crime was related, in whole or in part, to the victim's official capacity.

2. Section 784.045, Florida Statutes, was amended by Chapter 88-344, § 3, Laws of Florida, to create a new aggravated battery offense. The committee, therefore, proposes that paragraph 2 of its instruction on page 90 of the manual be amended as follows:

2. (Defendant) in committing the battery

a. [intentionally or knowingly caused

[great bodily harm to (victim)]]

[permanent disability to (victim)]]

[permanent disfigurement to (victim)]]

b. [used a deadly weapon.]

c. [knew or should have known that (victim) was pregnant.]

3. The court in State v. Potts 526 So. 2d 63 (Fla. 1988) found section 790.07(2) "unconstitutional to the extent it purports to penalize a person who is under indictment." Paragraph 2 of the jury instruction on page 99 of the manual, therefore, should be amended by striking "[under indictment or information]" and by removing the brackets from "[committing or attempting to commit the felony of (felony alleged)]."

4. Section 790.161, Florida Statutes, was amended by Chapter 88-381, § 44, Laws of Florida. The instruction on page 103 of the manual, therefore, should be amended as shown in Exhibit 12, which incorporates another change suggested in the (88-1) report.

5. Section 790.162, Florida Statutes, was amended by Chapter 88-381, § 45, Laws of Florida. The instruction on page 104 of the manual, therefore, should be amended as shown in Exhibit 13.

6. Chapter 88-381, § 46, Laws of Florida, amends Section 806.111(1)(b), Florida Statutes, which defines "fire bomb." The definition in the instruction on page 129 of the manual should be amended to conform to the statute as follows:

"A ``fire bomb' is a container containing flammable liquid or combustible liquid, or any incendiary chemical mixture or compound, having a wick or similar device capable of being ignited or other means capable of causing ignition; but no device commercially manufactured primarily for the purpose of illumination, heating or cooking, shall be deemed to be such a fire bomb."

7. In Thomas v. State, 531 So. 2d 708 (Fla. 1988), the court overruled previous decisions that distinguished between common and uncommon devices as burglary tools. The instruction on page 138 of the manual should be revised to conform to that decision. Paragraph 2b of the instruction should be removed, and the instructions in the margin related to paragraph 2 should be deleted. The "a" in front of the remaining paragraph 2 also should be deleted.

8. Chapter 88-151, § 4, Laws of Florida, amends Section 827.04, Florida Statutes, concerning child abuse. The instruction on page 161 of the manual needs to be amended to conform to the statute. Paragraph 1 of the instruction, therefore, should be amended to read:

1. (Defendant) [willfully] [by culpable negligence] [knowingly]:

[[deprived (victim) of] [allowed (victim) to be deprived of] necessary food, clothing, shelter or medical treatment.] [inflicted or permitted the infliction of [physical] [mental] injury to (victim).]

9. Chapter 88-381, § 51, Laws of Florida, amends Section 843.02, Florida Statutes, concerning the offense of resisting an officer without violence. To conform the instruction to the statute, paragraph 1 on page 196 of the manual should be revised to read:

1. (Defendant) [resisted] [obstructed] [opposed] (victim).

10. Chapter 88-122, § 78, Laws of Florida, amended Section 951.23, Florida Statutes, adding "a county residential probation center" to the definition of "county detention facility." The instruction on page 257 of the manual should be amended to conform to the statute as shown in Exhibit 14.

11. The committee in its previous report (88-1) recommended the addition of a note regarding all drug trafficking offenses listed in the Schedule of Lesser Included Offenses. The note cites "Dauphin v. State, 511 So. 2d 1037 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987), cert. pending (case No. 70,995, Fla.S.Ct.)." The correct case name actually is "Daophin v. State" but of more importance the decision of the district court was reversed on October 20, 1988. The note, therefore, should not be approved.

The committee is drafting other amendments to existing instructions and some new instructions based on 1988 legislation, all of which need to be published in the Bar News. Those instructions will be submitted no sooner than March 1989.

Respectfully submitted, /s/ Harry Lee Coe Harry Lee Coe, Chair

We approve for publication these recommended amendments.^[*] We caution all interested persons, however, that the notes and comments reflect only the opinion of the committee and are not necessarily indicative of the views of this Court as to their correctness or applicability.

It is so ordered.

methods of persuasion or inducement which created
a substantial risk that the crime would be
committed by a person other than one who was
ready to commit it, and

is so close as to be within ready reach and is under
the control of the person, it is in the actual
possession of that person.
If a thing is in a place over which the person has
control or in which the person has hidden or
concealed it, it is in the constructive possession
of that person.
Possession may be joint, that is, two or more
persons may jointly have possession of an article,
exercising control over it. In that case, each of
those persons is considered to be in possession of
that article.
If a person has exclusive possession of a thing,
knowledge of its presence may be inferred or
assumed.
If a person does not have exclusive possession
of a thing, knowledge of its presence may not be
inferred or assumed.

in a criminal proceeding by a competent court
pronouncing the accused guilty.
A ["firearm"] ["electric weapon or device"]

EXHIBIT 4
THEFT
F.S. 812.014
Before you can find the defendant guilty of Theft,
the State must prove the following two elements
beyond a reasonable doubt:
Elements                  1. (Defendant) knowingly and unlawfully [obtained]
[used] [endeavored to obtain] [endeavored to
use] the (property alleged) of (victim).
2. He did so with intent to, either temporarily or
permanently,
[deprive (victim) of his right to the
property or any benefit from it.]
[appropriate the property of (victim) to his
own use or to the use of any person not
entitled to it.]
Degrees; give if        The punishment provided by law for the crime of
property is of          theft is greater depending upon the value of the
monetary value up to    property taken. Therefore, If you find the defendant
extent of charge        guilty of theft, you must determine by your verdict
whether:
a. [The value of the property taken was $100,000 or
more.]
                          a.b. [The value of the property taken was $20,000
or more but less than $100,000.]
b.c. [The value of the property taken was $300 or
more but less than $20,000.]
c.d. [The value of the property taken was less
than $300.]
Give if applicable          e. [The property was [a will, codicil, or other
testamentary instrument.] [a firearm.] [a
motor vehicle.] [a horse.] [a cow.] [a pig.]
[a kind of livestock.] [a fire extinguisher.]
[2000 or more pieces of fruit.] [taken from a
posted construction site.]]
Inferences; give if       Proof that a person presented false identification
applicable              not current in respect to name, address, place of
F.S. 812.022(1)         employment or other material aspect in connection
with the leasing of personal property, or failed
to return leased property within 72 hours of the
termination of the leasing agreement, unless
satisfactorily explained, gives rise to an inference
that the property was obtained or is now used with
unlawful intent to commit theft.
Inferences; give         Proof of possession of recently stolen property,
if applicable          unless satisfactorily explained, give rise to an
F.S. 812.022(2)        inference that the person in possession of the
property knew or should have known that the
property had been stolen.
Definitions;             "Obtains or uses" means any manner of:
give if applicable
F.S. 812.012(2)
(a) Taking or exercising control over property.
(b) Making any unauthorized use, disposition, or
transfer of property.
(c) Obtaining property by fraud, willful
misrepresentation of a future act, or false
promise.
(d) 1. Conduct previously known as stealing;
larceny; purloining; abstracting;
embezzlement; misapplication;
misappropriation; conversion; or
obtaining money or property by false
pretenses, fraud, or deception; or
2. Other conduct similar in nature.
"Endeavor" means to attempt or try.
F.S. 812.012(3)          "Property" means anything of value, and includes:
real property, including things growing on,
affixed to and found in land;
tangible or intangible personal property,
including rights, privileges, interests and
claims; and
services.
F.S. 812.012(5)          "Services" means anything of value resulting from
a person's physical or mental labor or skill, or
from the use, possession or presence of property,
and includes:
repairs or improvements to property;
professional services;
private, public or government communication,
transportation, power, water or sanitation
services;
lodging accommodations; and
admissions to places of exhibition or
entertainment.
Note to Judge            It is error to inform the jury of a prior
conviction. Therefore, do not read the allegation
of prior conviction or send the information or
indictment into the jury room. The historical fact
of a previous conviction shall be determined by the
judge, and shall thereby fix the degree of the
crime. State of Florida v. Harris, 356 So. 2d 315
(Fla. 1978).
F.S. 812.012(9)          "Value" means
The market value of the property at the time and
place of the offense, or if that value cannot be
satisfactorily
                         ascertained, the cost of replacement of the
property within a reasonable time after the
offense.
In the case of a written instrument that does
not have a readily ascertainable market value,
such as a check, draft or promissory note, the
value is the amount due or collectible.
In the case of any other instrument that
creates, releases, discharges or otherwise
affects any valuable legal right, privilege or
obligation, the value is the greatest amount of
economic loss that the owner of the instrument
might reasonably suffer by virtue of the loss
of the instrument.
The value of a trade secret that does not have
a readily ascertainable market value is any
reasonable value representing the damage to the
owner suffered by reason of losing an advantage
over those who do not know of or use the trade
secret.
If the exact value of the property cannot be
ascertained, you should attempt to determine a
minimum value. If you cannot determine the
minimum value, you must find the value is less
than $100 $300.
Amounts of value of separate properties,
involved in thefts committed pursuant to one
scheme or course of conduct, whether the thefts
are from the same person or several person, may
be totaled in determining the grade of the
offense.

ROBBERY
F.S. 812.13
Before you can find the defendant guilty of
Robbery, the State must prove the following four
elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Elements                  1. (Defendant) took the (money or property
described in charge) from the person or custody
of (person alleged).
2. The taking was by Force, violence, assault, or
by putting (person alleged) in fear was used in
the course of the taking.
3. The property taken was of some value.
4. (Defendant) took the (money or property
described in the charge) from the person or
custody of (person alleged) and at the time
of the taking intended to permanently deprive
(person alleged) of the (money or property).
The taking was with the intent to permanently
[deprive (victim) of his right to the property
or any benefit from it.] [appropriate the
property of (victim) to his own use or to the
use of any person not entitled to it.]
"In the course of the taking" means that the
act occurred prior to, contemporaneous with, or
subsequent to the taking of the property and
that the act and the taking of the property
constitute continuous series of acts or events.
Title to property         In order for a taking of property to be robbery,
it is not necessary that the person robbed be the
actual owner of the property. It is sufficient if
the victim has the custody of the property at the
time of the offense.
Force; give               The taking must be by the use of force or violence
if applicable           or by assault so as to overcome the resistance of
the victim, or by putting the victim in fear so that
he does not resist. The law does not require that
the victim of robbery resist to any particular
extent or that he offer any actual physical
resistance if the circumstances are such that he is
placed in fear of death or great bodily harm if he
does resist. But unless
                        prevented by fear there must be some resistance to
make the taking one done by force or violence.
Victim unconscious;       It is also robbery if a person, with intent to
give if applicable      take the property from a victim, administers any
substance to another so that the victim becomes
unconscious and then takes the property from the
person or custody of the victim.
Taking                    In order for a taking by force, violence or
putting in fear to be robbery, it is not necessary
that the taking be from the person of the victim. It
is sufficient if the property taken is under the
actual control of the victim so that it cannot be
taken without the use of force, violence or
intimidation directed against the victim.
Enhanced penalty;         The punishment provided by law for the crime of
give if applicable      robbery is greater if "in the course of committing
the robbery" the defendant carried some kind of
weapon. An act is "in the course of committing the
robbery" if it occurs in an attempt to commit
robbery or in flight after the attempt or
commission. Therefore, if you find the defendant
guilty of robbery, you must then consider whether
the State has further proved those aggravating
circumstances and reflect this in your verdict.
With a firearm                If you find that the defendant carried a
firearm in the course of committing the robbery,
you should find him guilty of robbery with a
firearm.
With a deadly                 If you find that the defendant carried a
weapon                      (deadly weapon described in charge) in the
course of committing the robbery and that the
(deadly weapon  described in charge) was a
deadly weapon, you should find him guilty of
robbery with a deadly weapon.
With other                    If you find that the defendant carried a
weapon                      weapon that was not a [firearm] [deadly weapon]
in the course of committing the robbery, you
should find him guilty of robbery with a weapon.
With no firearm               If you find that the defendant carried no
or weapon                   firearm or weapon in the course of committing
the robbery, but did commit the robbery, you
should find him guilty only of robbery.
Definitions                   A "firearm" is legally defined as (adapt from
F.S. 790.001 as required by allegations).
A weapon is a "deadly weapon" if it is used or
threatened to be used in a way likely to produce
death or great bodily harm.
A "weapon" is legally defined to mean any
object that could be used to cause death or
inflict serious bodily harm.
Also define "attempt" (see page 55).
EXHIBIT 7
BOOKMAKING
F.S. 849.25(1)
Before you can find the defendant guilty of
Bookmaking, the State must prove the following two
three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

profession of gambling.

received a bet or wager.
3. The bet or wager was upon the result of [a

or [mechanical apparatuses].]
[a chance, casualty, or unknown or contingent
event.]
F.S. 849.25(1)(b)         To determine whether (defendant) was engaged in
the offense of bookmaking the following factors
shall be considered:
1. Taking advantage of betting odds created to
produce a profit for the bookmaker or charging
a percentage on accepted wagers.
2. Placing all or part of accepted wagers with
other bookmakers to reduce the chance of
financial loss.
3. Taking or receiving more than five wagers in
any single day.
4. Taking or receiving wagers totaling more than
$500 in any single day, or more than $1,500 in
any single week.
5. Engaging in a common scheme with two or more
persons to take or receive wagers.
6. Taking or receiving wagers on both sides of a
contest at the identical point spread.
7. Any other factor relevant to establishing that
the operating procedures of such person are
commercial in nature.
Note to Judge           It is the committee's opinion that F.S. 849.25(1)(c)
is for the judge and not the jury. Therefore (1)(c)
should not be read to the jury.

CONSPIRACY TO ENGAGE IN PATTERN OF RACKETEERING
ACTIVITY
F.S. 895.03(4)
A "conspiracy" is a combination or agreement of
two or more persons to join together to attempt to
accomplish an offense which would be in violation of
the law. It is a kind of "partnership in criminal
purposes" in which each member becomes the agent of
every other member.
The evidence in the case need not show that the
alleged members of the conspiracy entered into any
express or formal agreement or that they directly
discussed between themselves the details of the
scheme and its purpose or the precise ways in which
the purpose was to be accomplished. Neither must it
be proved that all of the persons charged to have
been members of the conspiracy were such nor that
the alleged conspirators actually succeeded in
accomplishing their unlawful objectives nor that any
alleged member of the conspiracy did any act in
furtherance of the conspiracy.
What the evidence in the case must show beyond a
reasonable doubt before you may find the defendant
guilty of conspiring to violate the RICO Act is:
1. Two or more persons, in some way or manner,
came to a mutual understanding to try to
accomplish a common and unlawful plan, namely
to engage in a "pattern of racketeering
activity" as charged in the Information; and
2. The defendant knowingly and willfully became a
member of such conspiracy; and
3. At the time the defendant joined such
conspiracy, he did so with the specific intent
either to personally engage in at least two
incidents of racketeering, as alleged in the
Information, or he specifically intended to
otherwise participate in the affairs of the
"enterprise" with the knowledge and intent that
other members of the conspiracy would engage in
at least two incidents of racketeering, as
alleged in the Information, as part of a
"pattern of racketeering activity."
A person may become a member of a conspiracy
without full knowledge of all of the details of the
unlawful scheme or the names and identities of all
of the other alleged conspirators. So, if a
defendant has an understanding of the unlawful
nature of a plan and knowingly and willfully joins
in that plan on one occasion, that is sufficient to
convict him for conspiracy, even though he did not
participate before and even though he played only a
minor part.
Of course, mere presence at the scene of a
transaction or event or the mere fact that certain
persons may have associated with each other and may
have assembled together and discussed common aims
and interests does not necessarily establish proof
of the existence of a conspiracy. Also, a person who
has no knowledge of a conspiracy but who happens to
act in a way which advances some purpose of a
conspiracy does not thereby become a conspirator.
Give if applicable        It is a defense to the charge of conspiracy to
Defense                 engage in a pattern of racketeering activity that
F.S. 777.04(5)(c)       (defendant), after knowingly
                        entering into such a conspiracy with one or more
persons, thereafter persuaded such persons not to
engage in such activity or otherwise prevented
commission of the offense. In this regard you are
instructed that a mere endeavor to dissuade one
from engaging in such activity is insufficient.
Note to Judge             An endeavor to dissuade a coconspirator is
insufficient to constitute the statutory defense of
withdrawal. State v. Bauman, 425 So. 2d 32, 34 (Fla.
4th DCA 1982).
Definitions:
"Pattern of racketeering activity" means engaging
in at least two incidents of racketeering conduct
that have the same or similar intents, results,
accomplices, victims, or methods of commission or
that otherwise are interrelated by distinguishing
characteristics and are not isolated incidents.
F.S. 895.02(3)            "Enterprise" means any individual, sole
proprietorship, partnership, corporation, business
trust, union chartered under the laws of Florida, or
other legal entity, or any unchartered union,
association, or group of individuals associated in
fact although not a legal entity, and includes
lawful as well as unlawful enterprises and
governmental as well as other entities.
Note to Judge             Whether an individual can be an enterprise see
State v. Nishi, 521 So. 2d 252 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988)
and State v. Bowen, 413 So. 2d 798 (Fla. 1st DCA
1983), rev. den. 424 So. 2d 760.
EXHIBIT 10
COMMENT ON SCHEDULE OF LESSER INCLUDED OFFENSES
One of the difficult problems in instructing a criminal jury is to make
certain that it is properly charged with respect to the degrees or
categories of guilt that may be applicable to a given crime. The supreme
court in Brown v. State, 206 So. 2d 377 (Fla. 1968) described these
categories as follows:
1. Crimes divisible into degrees
2. Attempts to commit offenses
3. Offenses necessarily included in the offense charged
4. Offenses which may or may not be included in the offense charged,
depending on the accusatory pleading and the evidence.
Because it is often so difficult to determine these categories, the
committee prepared a list of the offenses applicable to each of the crimes
for which standard jury instructions had been drafted. At the same time,
the committee recommended treating lesser degrees as category 3 or 4
offenses depending upon the offense and treating attempts as a category 4
offense, thereby eliminating the first two Brown categories as separate
categories. In its opinion dated April 16, 1981, in which it approved the
new standard jury instructions, the supreme court also approved the
schedule of lesser included offenses and accepted the recommendation of the
committee to consolidate the four Brown categories into two
categories. The supreme court directed that the four categories should be
renumbered and designated as follows:
1. Offenses necessarily included in the offense charged, which will
include some lesser degrees of offenses
2. Offenses which may or may not be included in the offense charged,
depending on the accusatory pleading and the evidence, which will include
all attempts and some lesser degrees of offenses
The court also directed that the appropriate Florida Rules of Criminal
Procedure be amended to accommodate these changes. The categories of the
offenses which appear on the schedule of lesser included offenses have
been renumbered and designated according to the supreme court mandate.
In determining the appropriate lesser offenses for inclusion in the
table, the committee followed certain guidelines:
1. No offense is deemed to be a lesser offense if it carries the same
penalty as the crime under consideration. See Ray v. State, 403 So. 2d 956
(Fla. 1981); State v. Carpenter, 417 So. 2d 986
(Fla. 1982).
  2. If the definition of the crime includes the attempt or the endeavor to
commit the crime, there can be no separate offense of an attempt to commit
that crime, e.g., uttering, forgery, grand theft second degree,
delivery of controlled substance.
3. Certain crimes do not have attempts, e.g., culpable negligence,
extortion, perjury, corruption by threat against public servant,
resisting officer with violence, and conspiracy.
4. Except as stated above, attempts to commit crimes generally are
included unless the evidence conclusively shows that the charged crime was
completed. In such case, attempt should not be instructed.
5. Some statutes provide that the penalty for certain crimes is enhanced
if certain events occur during their commission.
For example, under F.S. 810.02 burglary is a felony of the first
degree if the burglar makes an assault or is armed with explosives or
dangerous weapons. If these events do not occur but burglary is committed in
a dwelling occupied by human beings, the offense is a felony of the second
degree. All other burglaries are felonies of the third degree. Thus, if a
defendant is charged with first degree burglary by virtue of having made an
assault during the course of the burglary, the jury should be permitted to
return a verdict for simple third degree burglary without the enhancement of
the assault. In practice, this is similar to the concept of lesser included
offenses, but since statutes of this type are couched in terms of
enhancement, the schedule does not carry the lower degrees of the offenses
proscribed by those statutes as lesser included offenses.
6. Under Knight v. State, 338 So. 2d 201 (Fla. 1976), felony
murder is included within a single indictment count of premeditated
murder. Therefore, first degree felony murder should be given if
requested by the state and if supported by the evidence, although it is
not a lesser included offense.

NOTES

[*] The committee expressed concern over the constitutionality of chapter 87-243, section 42, Laws of Florida, creating section 777.201(2), which places the burden of proof of entrapment on the defendant. Therefore, the committee offered alternative final paragraphs of the instruction, one of which retained the existing instruction which requires the state to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant was not entrapped, and the other which requires the defendant to prove entrapment by a preponderance of the evidence. For the purpose of adopting standard jury instructions, the constitutionality of a statute must be assumed unless it has been declared unconstitutional. The Court deems it inappropriate to pass on the constitutionality of a statute except in adversary proceedings. Therefore, for offenses occurring on or after October 1, 1987, the Court has accepted the statutory alternative which places the burden of proof of entrapment on the defendant.

[**] But see Martin v. State, 342 So. 2d 501 (Fla. 1977); Drotar v. State, 433 So. 2d 1005 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983), holding that nonhomicide lessers should not be given when the only issue is whether the death was a lawful or unlawful homicide, but should be given if there is an issue of causation, i.e., whether death was caused by defendant's act or some other unconnected cause. When a nonhomicide offense is a necessarily lesser included offense of the homicide offense, an instruction on the lesser may be necessary. See certified question in Barritt v. State, 517 So. 2d 65 (Fla. 1st DCA 1987).
