Board approves revised magistrate agreements, best practices and human trafficking affidavit
Summary
Counsel reported non-substantive updates to magistrate agreements and added record-keeping language tied to Florida Statute 119; the board approved the updated agreements and a human trafficking affidavit to be used with magistrates.
The Value Adjustment Board approved updated special magistrate agreements and best-practice documents, including a human trafficking affidavit recommended by counsel.
Counsel described the edits as primarily consistency and compliance changes, noting record-keeping language required by Florida Statute 119 and a five-business-day timeframe for producing no-show recommendations. "With regards to the best practices document, there have been some changes. Nothing substantive. I've just updated some things just for consistency and compliance," Cosby said during the discussion.
The board moved and approved the revised agreements and practices. Counsel told the board she had shared the human trafficking affidavit with other counties and praised Citrus County for incorporating it into local procedures.
