...ith jail; have threatened to accuse him and have accused him of a criminal violation of the Records Act; and have threatened "injury to the person, property or reputation of Ferre." FERRE contends that these alleged threats constitute a violation of Section
836.05, Florida Statutes, which makes it a felony to maliciously threaten to accuse another of any crime or offense with the intent to extort money or any pecuniary advantage or to compel another to do, or refrain from doing, an act against his will. Section
836.05, however, does not expressly provide for a private right of action nor, plaintiffs argue, does the statute create a private right of action by implication. This Court agrees with plaintiffs that Judge Pearson's concurring opinion in Roger Rankin Enterprises, Inc. v. Green,
433 So.2d 1248 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983) is persuasive authority for the proposition that in enacting §
836.05 the Florida Legislature did not intend to create a private civil cause of action....
...the Legislature intended to create a private right of action *977 under the statute it would have expressly provided for one, as it did under the criminal theft statute §
812.035, Florida Statutes. Judge Pearson's reasoning is equally applicable to §
836.05 which is similarly devoid of any suggestion that the legislature intended to create a private civil cause of action for damages. Accordingly, as there is no private right of action under §
836.05, this Court finds judgment on the pleadings should be entered as to Count III....

...If a ruling on the validity of the statute was not made in the trial court, it is difficult to understand how it was preserved for review in the District Court of Appeal. Nonetheless, the assignments of error filed by the appellant in the court below clearly raise the constitutional issue: Florida Statute § 836.05, the section under which the Defendant has been convicted, is unconstitutional as applied to your Defendant based upon the facts in this cause and is in contravention as applied *1068 in this cause to Defendant's rights under the First Amendment, Fifth Amendment, and Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.

...et or damage her reputation; rather, the evidence only showed the victim suffered a mental injury, or an injury to her emotional well-being. Appellant argued the victim's mental injury was insufficient to meet the elements of extortion, set forth in section 836.05, Florida Statutes....
...The jury returned a verdict finding appellant guilty of extortion as charged in the *906 information. He was sentenced to one year in prison. Appellant presently appeals his judgment and sentence. II. ANALYSIS In this appeal, appellant asserts the trial court erred in denying his motion for judgment of acquittal, because section 836.05, Florida Statutes, does not include threats of injury to the victim's mental or emotional well being for the purpose of extorting money or other pecuniary gain. Section 836.05, Florida Statutes, provides: Whoever, either verbally or by a written or printed communication, maliciously threatens to accuse another of any crime or offense, or by such communication maliciously threatens an injury to the person, pr...
...eby to extort money or any pecuniary advantage whatsoever, or with intent to compel the person so threatened, or any other person, to do any act or refrain from doing any act against his or her will, shall be guilty of a felony of the second degree. § 836.05, Fla....
...Moreover, the jury was instructed that "injury to the person" includes physical and mental injury, and it is impossible to tell from the verdict form on which theory the jury relied in convicting appellant. Second, the State asserts the trial court properly construed section
836.05 to include injury to the victim's mental or emotional well being. This second argument has merit. Appellant contends this court is obligated, pursuant to section
775.021, Florida Statutes, to strictly construe section
836.05 in his favor....
...Section
775.021(1) requires that the provisions of the criminal code "be strictly construed; when the language is susceptible of differing constructions, it shall be construed most favorably to the accused." §
775.021(1), Fla. Stat. (2006). *907 Thus, appellant contends, the trial court should have ruled that section
836.05 only contemplates a physical injury, and does not include injuries to the victim's mental or emotional well being....
...e obvious intention of the legislature. In other words, such strict construction is subordinate to the rule that the intention of the lawmakers must be given effect." State ex rel. Washington v. Rivkind,
350 So.2d 575, 577 (Fla. 3d DCA 1977). Within section
836.05, there is evidence the Legislature intended the crime of extortion to encompass threats to mental or emotional well being....
...As further evidence of the Legislature's intent, the phrase "injury to the person" is not further modified as a "bodily injury" or "physical injury" to the person, and thus includes both physical and mental injuries. It appears this is a case of first impression in Florida. Accordingly, no Florida court has ruled that section 836.05 excludes threats which cause the victim only a mental or emotional injury....
...such magnitude as to cause her severe mental anguish which would constitute injury to the person. . . . Simply stated, an injury to a person's reputation is an injury to the person."). Conclusion Therefore, we hold that Florida's extortion statute, section 836.05, does encompass injuries, such as the one in this case, where appellant threatened the victim and caused her emotional distress. As in Galusha, appellant used Mrs. Bailey's fear of her husband and his continued abuse to compel her to pay appellant $2,500. No Florida case suggests that this conduct is not included under section 836.05....
