Florida Juvenile Procedure Rule 8.941

FORM 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.
