In Re STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES—REPORT 2016-03

PER CURIAM. The Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases (Committee) has submitted proposed changes to the standard jury instructions and asks that the Court authorize the amended standard instructions for publica *831 tion and use. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const. The Committee proposes amending the following existing standard criminal jury instructions: 3.13 (Submitting Cáse to Jury); 20.13 (Fraudulent Use or Possession of Personal Identification Information); 20.14 (Harassment by Use of Personal Identification Information); 20.15 (Fraudulent Use of Personal Identification Information of a [Minor] [Person Sixty Years of Age or Older]); 20.16 (Fraudulent Use of Personal Identification Information of a [Minor] [Person 60 Years of Age or Older] by a Parent, Guardian, or Person Who Exercised Custodial Authority); 20.17 (Fraudulent Use or Possession of Personal Identification Information Concerning a Deceased Individual); 20.18 ([Fraudulent Creation of] [Fraudulent Use of] [Possession with Intent to Fraudulently Use] Counterfeit Personal Identification Information); and 20.21 (Fraudulent Use of Personal Identification Information of a [Disabled Adult] [Public Servant] [Veteran] [First Responder] [State Employee] [Federal Employee] ). In addition, the Committee proposes amending instruction 2.08 (Verdict and’ Submitting Case to Jury), pertaining to “Special Proceedings,” specifically “Involuntary Civil Commitment of Sexually Violent Predators.” The Committee published its proposals in The Florida Bar News. No comments were received by the Committee. Post-publication, the Committee made minor changes to instructions 20.13, 20.17, and 20.21. The Court did not publish the proposals after they were filed. The more significant changes to the standard criminal jury instructions are discussed below. First, both instructions 2.08 (Verdict and Submitting Case to Jury) and 3.13 (Submitting Case to Jury) are amended to add the following sentence to the instructions: “If you have voted, do not disclose the actual vote in the note.” This change is supported by Scoggins v. State, 691 So.2d 1185, 1186-88 (Fla. 4th DCA 1997), which stated that knowing the numerical divisions within the jury could lead the trial judge to interact inappropriately with the jurors. Next, in instructions 20.14 (Harassment by Use of Personal Identification Information) and 20.18 ([Fraudulent Creation of] [Fraudulent Use of] [Possession with Intent to Fraudulently Use] Counterfeit Personal Identification Information), the language pertaining to enhanced penalties is removed from the italicized instruction to the judge, and the following paragraph' is added to the Comment section of the instructions: “There are two possible enhanced penalties for this crime. See § 817.568(5), and § 817.568(10), Fla. Stát. If one of those enhanced penalties is charged; a special instruction would be necessary in order for the jury to make the appropriate finding.” The remaining amendments to the standard jury instructions are straightforward and generally track the language of the offenses instructed upon. Having considered the Committee’s report, we authorize the standard jury instructions for publication and use as proposed by the Committee. The amended criminal jury instructions and the amended involuntary civil commitment of sexually violent predators jury instruction, as set forth in the appendix to this, opinion, are hereby authorized for publication and use. 1 New language is *832 indicated by underlining, and deleted language is indicated by struek-through type. In authorizing the publication and use of these instructions, we express no opinion on their correctness and remind all interested parties that this authorization forecloses neither requesting additional or alternative instructions nor contesting the legal correctness of the instructions. We further caution all interested parties that any comments associated with the instructions reflect only the opinion of the Committee and are not necessarily indicative of the views of this Court as to their correctness or applicability. The instructions as set forth in the appendix shall be effective when this opinion becomes final. It is so ordered.

Lesser Included Offenses [[Image here]] Comments * The part of § 817.568(2)(a), Fla. Stat., that covers the defendant willfully and without authorization fraudulently using the victim’s personal identification information is a necessary lesser included offense of this crime, However, the part of § 817.568(2)(a), Fla. Stat., that covers the defendant possessing personal identification information with intent to fraudulently use is not. Both § 817.568(6), Fla. Stat., and § 817.568(11), Fla. Stat., criminalize Fraudulent Use of Personal Identification Information of a Person -60 Years of Age or Older. While both are second degree felonies, § 817.568(6), Fla. Stat., is listed in level 8 and § 817.568(11), Fla. Stat., is unlisted, which would make it a level -4, according to § 921.0023, Fla. Stat. If the State alleges that the defendant violated § 817.568(11), Fla. Stat., and that the victim was 60 years of age or older, the trial judge should instruct using the appropriate parts of Instruction 20.15. There are two possible enhanced penalties for this crime. See § 817.568(5) and § 817.568(10), Fla. Stat. If one of these enhanced penalties is charged, a special instruction would be necessary in order for the jury to make the appropriate finding. This instruction was adopted in 2015 [176 So.3d 938] and amended in 2016.
