Florida Statutes are the codified, statutory laws of the state of Florida, in the United States. They are the permanent collection of state laws organized by subject area into Titles, Chapters, and Sections. The Florida Statutes are updated annually by laws that create, amend, or repeal statutory material.
Overview[edit]
The Florida Statutes are organized into 48 Titles, which are further divided into Chapters and Sections. They cover a wide range of topics, including criminal law, family law, property law, and administrative law. The Florida Statutes are created by the Florida Legislature and signed into law by the Governor of Florida.
History[edit]
The first compilation of Florida laws was published in 1822, shortly after Florida became a U.S. territory. The current system of codified laws known as the Florida Statutes was first established in 1941.
Revision and Updates[edit]
The Florida Statutes are updated annually to incorporate laws that are newly enacted or amended by the Florida Legislature. The Florida Department of State is responsible for publishing the updated statutes.
Access[edit]
The Florida Statutes are publicly accessible and can be found online through the official website of the Florida Legislature. They are also available in print in many public libraries and law libraries across the state.
