  • Paragraphs 69B-211.042(8)(a) and subparagraph 69B-211.042(17)(c)3., F.A.C.;
  • The phrase in the last sentence of paragraph 69B-211.042(9)(a), F.A.C., “for each additional felony”; and
  • The phrase in subsection 69B-211.042(21), F.A.C., “and are all of equal weight notwithstanding from which paragraph they are drawn.”

Amendments made to Section 626.207, F.S. during the 2011 Florida Regular Legislative Session became effective on June 17, 2011.  The statute section supersedes Rule 69B-211.042 where the statute and Rule conflict.
