8.941 Order to Compile Report
ORDER TO COMPILE REPORT
Upon the motion of the State of Florida, the department
shall prepare a study and report to the court, in
writing, considering the following relevant factors:
1. The seriousness of the alleged offense to the community
and whether the protection of the community
is best served by transferring the child for adult
sanctions.
2. Whether the alleged offense was committed in an
aggressive, violent, premeditated, or willful manner.
3. Whether the alleged offense was against persons
or against property.
4. The probable cause as found in the report, affidavit,
or complaint.
5. The desirability of trial and disposition of the entire
offense in one court when the child’s associates
in
the alleged crime are adults or children who are to be
tried as adults who will be or have been charged with
a crime.
6. The sophistication and maturity of the child.
7. The record and previous history of the child
including:
a. Previous contact with the department, other
law enforcement agencies, and the courts;
b. Prior periods of juvenile probation;
c. Prior adjudications that the child committed a
delinquent act or violation of law, greater weight
being given if the child had previously been found
by a court to have committed a delinquent
act
involving an offense classified as a felony or had
twice previously been found to have committed a
delinquent act involving an offense classified as a
misdemeanor; and
d. Prior commitments to institutions.
8. The prospects for adequate protection of the public
and the likelihood of reasonable rehabilitation
of
the child, if found to have committed the alleged offense,
by the use of procedures, services, and facilities
currently available to the court.
