Tuesday, November 19, 1974

Beginning of a Special Session of the Fourth Legislature under the Constitution as Revised in 1968, con-
vened by Proclamation of the Governor and held at the Capitol in Tallahassee, Florida, on Tuesday, November
19, 1974.



The House of Representatives was called to order at 5:00 p.m.
by the Honorable Donald L. Tucker, Speaker, pursuant to the
following proclamation of the Governor, which was read:

STATE OF FLORIDA
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT

PROCLAMATION OF THE GOVERNOR
TO THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE FLORIDA
SENATE AND THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES:
WHEREAS, the First District Court of Appeal has recently
ruled in the companion cases of State ex rel. Christian v.
Austin and State ex rel. Christian v. Rudd, that the Grand
Jury proceedings therein were not in accordance with State
law, and
WHEREAS, the Court's decision would prohibit the future
assignment by the Governor of a State Attorney to investigate
and prosecute a specific matter in another circuit without the
disqualification of the resident State Attorney, and
WHEREAS, the Court's decision would prohibit the utiliza-
tion by the Assigned State Attorney of his own Assistant State
Attorneys in the performance of his duties within the assigned
circuit, and
WHEREAS, the Court's decision also declared that it is con-
trary to law for Assistant State Attorneys to appear in the
Grand Jury room with the State Attorney, and
WHEREAS, the effectiveness of prosecution and investiga-
tion of alleged illegal acts in this State through the assignment
of State Attorneys and their Assistants would be seriously im-
paired by the Court's construction of Sections 27.14, 905.17 and
905.19, Florida Statutes, it is clear that the best interest of
the people of the State of Florida would be promoted by con-
vening the Legislature in Special Session to consider the en-
actment of legislation that will correct the deficiencies in the
law found by the Court, and
WHEREAS, the Inter-American Center Authority failed to
receive any bids on its bond issue on September 1974, and
WHEREAS, the Inter-American Center Authority has in ex-
cess of six million dollars in debts coming due prior to January
1, 1975, including five million dollars of bond anticipation notes,
and
WHEREAS, to continue the use of the lands for public pur-
poses, it is clear that the best interest of the people of the
State of Florida would be promoted by convening the Legisla-
ture in Special Session to consider the present situation sur-
rounding Interama.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, REUBIN O'D. ASKEW, Governor of
Florida, in obedience to my constitutional duty and by virtue
of the power and authority vested in me by Section 3, Article
III, Florida Corstitution, do hereby proclaim as follows:
1. That the Legislature in the State of Florida is convened
in Special Session pursuant to Section 3(c), Article III, Florida
Constitution, at the Capitol, Tallahassee, Florida, on November
19, 1974, for a period of one day.
1



2. That the Legislature is convened for the sole purpose of
considering legislation that will:
(a) clarify the law construed by the Florida First District
Court of Appeal in the companion cases of State ex rel. Chris-
tian v. Austin and State ex rel. Christian v. Rudd, decided
November 5, 1974, concerning the assignment by the Governor
of State Attorneys to another circuit and those persons author-
ized to attend Grand Jury sessions, and
(b) abolish the Inter-American Center Authority created
in Chapter 554, Florida Statutes; provide for the transfer of
the title to its lands to the State of Florida Board of Trustees
of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund; provide for successor
agencies and the disposition and settlement of its debts.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have
hereunto set my hand and caused the
Great Seal of the State of Florida to
be affixed at the Capitol, Tallahassee,
Florida, this 15th day of November,
1974.

So the bill passed and was immediately certified to the
Senate.

Explanation of Vote
I would like to explain my vote in favor of CS for SB 3-A.
I voted in favor of CS for SB 3-A only to clarify and make
more evident to all parties the original intent of the legislature.
This intent has been that the Governor, to assure proper in-
vestigation of criminal activity, shall have sufficient authority



to assign or exchange state attorneys for single, or multiple
purposes; that assistant state attorneys and investigators are
to be authorized to accompany a state attorney to an assigned
circuit; and that assistant state attorneys are authorized to
accompany, or replace, state attorneys presenting evidence
before grand juries.
It is my opinion that the recent decisions in State ex rel.
Christian v. Rudd, et al, and State ex rel. Christian v. Austin,
et al are incorrect and falsely portray legislative intent as set
forth in CS for SB 3-A.
Representative James L. Redman

Adjournment

journed at 11:28 p.m. sine die.
