IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE TENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT
IN AND FOR POLK COUNTY, FLORIDA
ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 2-48.0
IN RE: AUTOMATIC REVOCATION OF PTR STATUS
UPON FAILURE TO APPEAR
WHEREAS a condition of Pretrial Release (PTR) is that the Defendant appears at subsequent court hearings; and
WHEREAS it is desirable to streamline the process whereby defendants who fail to meet that condition of PTR are revoked from PTR status; it is accordingly
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that
WHEN a defendant who has been released on PTR fails to appear at any subsequent court hearing and where the judge thereafter issues a capias for the defendant, it shall be automatic that the defendants PTR status be REVOKED. At the time the PTR is revoked, the courtroom clerk shall so note on the "snap-out" form so that proper notification can be given to the appropriate parties.
DONE AND ORDERED on this 30th day of June, 1997.
