NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on July 16, 2010, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, received a petition for permanent waiver of subsection 11B-27.00213(4), F.A.C., by Tabitah Williams. The rule requires recruits employed by agencies on a temporary employment authorization (TEA) to have a four-year break in service before they may enter into another TEA if their TEA is terminated prior to the recruit becoming certified. Petitioner’s employer terminated her employment while she was on a TEA. Petitioner seeks a waiver of this rule so that she may seek another TEA immediately at another facility and, thereby, remain employed while she fulfils the requirements of Section 943.13, F.S., to become certified.
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, (850)410-7676.
