Resolution 2022-32443 RESOLUTION NO. 2022-32443 A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, STRONGLY OPPOSING THE PROPOSED CRIMINAL COURT ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER RELATING TO BAIL AND BOND REFORM, TO THE EXTENT THAT THE ORDER WOULD RESULT IN GRANTING MANY CRIMINAL OFFENDERS A RELEASE ON THEIR OWN RECOGNIZANCE, WITHOUT ATTENDING A FIRST APPEARANCE HEARING BEFORE A JUDGE AND WITHOUT ANY MONETARY BOND BEING POSTED, INCLUDING OFFENDERS ARRESTED FOR A WIDE RANGE OF CRIMES IN MIAMI BEACH, SUCH AS CITY AND COUNTY ORDINANCE OFFENSES, FIRST AND SECOND DEGREE MISDEMEANOR OFFENSES, AND CERTAIN FELONY OFFENSES; AND FURTHER, DIRECTING THE CITY CLERK TO TRANSMIT A COPY OF THIS RESOLUTION TO ALL MUNICIPALITIES IN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, THE FRATERNAL ORDER OF POLICE, THE POLICE BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION, AND THE MIAMI-DADE LEAGUE OF CITIES, AND URGING ALL SUCH ENTITIES TO JOIN THE CITY'S OPPOSITION TO THIS MEASURE. WHEREAS, the City of Miami Beach (the "City"), along with various other municipalities in Miami-Dade County, continues to experience a fairly significant amount of quality of life offenses (both of the municipal/county ordinance and misdemeanor variety), along with other misdemeanor offenses being committed within its jurisdiction; and WHEREAS, when an individual is arrested for a misdemeanor(s) and/or criminal municipal ordinance violation(s), the case is heard in the County Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida; and WHEREAS, every person arrested for a criminal offense in the State of Florida must be taken before a judge within 24 hours of arrest for a First Appearance/Bond Hearing, unless such person has been previously released in a lawful manner; and WHEREAS, the purpose of the First Appearance/Bond Hearing is for the presiding judge to advise the defendant of the charges against him or her; to determine if the police had probable cause to effectuate the arrest; to determine whether the defendant can pay for an attorney and, if the defendant cannot, to appoint the public defender; and to set appropriate conditions of pre-trial release or a reasonable bond; and WHEREAS, the judiciary has a considerable amount of discretion in all aspects of criminal cases involving quality of life, misdemeanor, and municipal ordinance offenses(including, but not limited to, setting appropriate conditions of pre-trial release or a reasonable bond); and WHEREAS, pursuant to Article V, section 2(d) of the Florida Constitution and Section 43.26 of the Florida Statutes, the Chief Judge of each Judicial Circuit is charged with the authority and power to promote the prompt and efficient administration of justice; and WHEREAS, the City has become aware that the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Miami-Dade County is considering promulgating an Administrative Order that would establish a revised Uniform Bail Bond Schedule; and WHEREAS, the City has also become aware that the proposed Administrative Order may automatically grant criminal offenders a release on their own recognizance ("ROR") for City and County ordinance violations, first and second degree misdemeanors, and third degree felonies (subject to certain exceptions)without attending First Appearance/Bond Hearing before a judge, and without posting any monetary bond amount; and WHEREAS, the City is concerned that the proposed Administrative Order may create potential issues and have adverse, unintended consequences on the law-abiding residents, visitors and businesses in the City and throughout Miami-Dade County. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT DULY RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE City of Miami Beach, Florida, that the Mayor and City Commission hereby strongly oppose the proposed Criminal Court Administrative Order relating to bail and bond reform, to the extent that the Order would result in granting many criminal offenders a release on their own recognizance, without attending a first appearance hearing before a judge and without any monetary bond being posted, including offenders arrested for a wide range of crimes in Miami Beach, such as City and County ordinance offenses, first and second degree misdemeanor offenses, and certain felony offenses; and further, direct the City Clerk to transmit a copy of this Resolution to all municipalities in Miami-Dade County, the Fraternal Order of Police, the Police Benevolent Association, and the Miami-Dade League of Cities, and urge all such entities to join the City's opposition to this measure.
