Florida Statute Reference
Fraud & White Collar offenses in Florida are governed by F.S. 817. Key provisions include the definition of the offense, penalty classifications, and sentencing guidelines. For the full text, visit the Florida Legislature website.
The right to bail in Florida is guaranteed by Article I, Section 14 of the Florida Constitution for all non-capital offenses. This means that for most fraud & white collar charges, bail must be offered — the only question is the amount.
