RULE NO.: RULE TITLE:
11B-27.002: Certification, Employment or Appointment, Reactivation, and Terminating Employment or Appointment of Officers

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on August 30, 2011, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, received a petition for a permanent waiver of subsection 11B-27.002(4), F.A.C., from Diego Abel Colon-Batiz. Subsection 11B-27.002(4), F.A.C., requires recruits to complete basic recruit training, pass the SOCE, and gain employment within four years of beginning basic recruit training. The petition states that the Petitioner began basic on April 2, 2007, and paid his own way through basic by working full time. Petitioner further states that he was injured while completing basic and that prevented him from graduating until August 13, 2008. Petitioner states that he will suffer a substantial hardship if he is not permitted an extra six months to find employment because he will have to retake basic recruit training and retake the SOCE. The Petitioner requests an extra six months to find employment.
A copy of the Petition for Variance or Waiver may be obtained by contacting: Grace A. Jaye, Assistant General Counsel, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, P. O. Box 1489, Tallahassee, FL 32302 or by telephoning (850)410-7676.
