# Gay and Transgender Panic Legal Defenses Prohibition Act - Proposed Amendment by Senator Book

By Senator Book
A bill to be entitled
Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Florida:
Section 1. Section 900.06, Florida Statutes, is created to read:
900.06 Use of gay and transgender panic legal defenses prohibited.—
(1) SHORT TITLE.—This act may be cited as the “Gay and Transgender Panic Legal Defenses Prohibition Act.”
(2) LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS.—The Legislature finds that gay and transgender panic legal defenses raised in criminal proceedings characterize sexual orientation and gender expression or gender identity as objectively reasonable excuses for a perpetrator’s loss of self-control, and that these defenses thereby illegitimately attempt to mitigate the responsibility of the perpetrator for harm done to lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender individuals.
​(a) “Gay and transgender panic legal defense” means a legal strategy that asks a judge or a jury to find that a victim’s sexual orientation or gender identity is the cause of the defendant’s reaction and commission of a criminal offense.
(b) “Gender expression” or “gender identity” means gender-related identity, appearance, or behavior, regardless of whether such gender-related identity, appearance, or behavior is different from that traditionally associated with a person’s physiology or assigned sex at birth.
(c) “Sexual orientation” means an individual’s actual or perceived heterosexuality, homosexuality, or bisexuality.
(4) PROHIBITION ON GAY AND TRANSGENDER PANIC LEGAL DEFENSES.—A nonviolent sexual advance or the perception or belief, even if inaccurate, of the sex, sexual orientation, gender expression, or gender identity of an individual may not be used as a defense to a criminal offense, to excuse or to justify the conduct of an individual who commits a criminal offense, or to mitigate the severity of a criminal offense during sentencing.
Section 2. This act shall take effect July 1, 2023.

# Gay v. Alter/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
102 U.S. 79
Gay v. Alter
It is contended by the appellant that the contract whereby Ames agreed to sell his judgment for $8,000, was a synallagmatic contract, which he had a right to rescind if the agreement of the other party as-to the payment of the purchase-money was not performed. This is undoubtedly the law of Louisiana; but that law also requires that, if a party to a contract wishes to rescind it for such a cause, he must return to the other party what he has received, so as to put him in the same situation he was in before. In the present case, it is not to be supposed that it was Ames's duty to return the $3,000 which he received, because it was really received from Aymar, the debtor. But he was at least bound to credit that amount on the judgment, which would have been a substantial return; and in that case he would have a right to maintain his judgment for the whole balance, and Gay, his vendee, would have had the same right. But he did not do this: nor has Gay done it; but, on the contrary, the latter has endeavored to collect the whole judgment without any deduction whatever. This conduct is totally inconsistent with the position taken. It shows, not a rescission of the contract, and a return or credit of the amount paid thereon, but a determination to regard the transaction as altogether void and the whole judgment still due.
We think that this position cannot be maintained.
Decree affirmed.

Gay v. Alter
APPEAL from the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Louisiana.
The controversy in this case related to the validity of certain judgments, and depended mainly upon the facts disclosed by the evidence. In one case the judgment creditor had agreed to accept $8,000 for a judgment of $11,000, and received $3,000 in cash on this agreement, and informally assigned the judgment to a friend of the judgment debtor for his benefit. The subsequent payments not being made as agreed, the judgment was assigned to Gay, who had notice of the transaction, and he sought to recover the whole amount. Alter, the purchaser of the property affected by the judgment, contended that it could only stand for the reduced amount, subject to the payment of $3,000, which would leave only $5,000 due. Gay claimed that, as the payments agreed to be made were not all made, the agreement was forfeited. The court below decreed in favor of Alter. Gay thereupon appealed here.
Mr. H. J. Leovy for the appellant.
Mr. George L. Bright, contra.
MR. JUSTICE BRADLEY, after stating the case, delivered the opinion of the court.

Gay v. Parpart
These motions are founded on an alleged defect in the form of the condition of the bond. By sect. 1000 Rev. Stat., the security to be taken on a writ of error or an appeal, where the writ or the appeal is a supersedeas and stays execution, must be 'that the plaintiff in error or the appellant shall prosecute his writ or appeal to effect, and, if he fails to make his plea good, shall answer all damages and costs.' The condition of the bond in this case is, that the appellants 'shall duly prosecute their said appeal with effect, and, moreover, pay the amount of costs and damages rendered and to be rendered in case the decree shall be affirmed in said Supreme Court.'
The object of the statutory requirement undoubtedly is to secure to the opposite party his damages and costs, in case the judgment or decree shall not be reversed, and that, we think, is the legal effect of this bond. If, on the final disposition of a writ of error or appeal, the judgment or decree brought under review is not substantially reversed, it is affirmed and the writ of error or appeal has not been prosecuted with effect. In our opinion the language of the bond covers fully all the requirements of the statute. The motions to dismiss the appeal and vacate the supersedeas are, therefore, overruled.
The appellee has coupled with a motion to dismiss, a motion, under Rule 6, to affirm, because it is manifest that the appeal was taken for delay only. Clearly this is not a case for the application of that rule.
Motions denied.

Signed by President Theodore Roosevelt Wednesday, December 23, 1908
During the provisional administration of the Cuban Government by the United States, which began September 29, 1906, it became necessary for the United States to employ persons in a civil capacity in Cuba in classified positions, both under the provisional government and the army of Cuban pacification, some of whom were temporarily transferred from the classified service while others were appointed temporarily without examination.
Upon the termination of the provisional government any person thus temporarily employed without examination may be transferred within one year from the date of the termination of his service in Cuba under the provisional government or the army of Cuban pacification to the classified service subject to the rules governing transfer and the following limitations:
    (a) He may not be transferred to a position requiring a higher grade of work than that performed by him in Cuba.
    (b) He must pass the examination required for original entrance to the position to which his transfer is proposed; and no person who at any time previous to this order or otherwise has failed in such examination shall be allowed reexamination except upon special order of the Civil Service Commission founded upon reasons peculiar to his case approved by said Commission.
    (c) He must have served at least one year In a civil capacity under the provisional government In Cuba or the army of Cuban pacification and to within six months of the termination of said provisional government or of the withdrawal of the said army of Cuban pacification.
    (d) His name must appear upon a list to be furnished by the War Department to the Civil Service Commission of persons who rendered satisfactory service and who were not separated for delinquency or misconduct, such list to show sufficient data to enable the Commission to determine eligibility for transfer under the foregoing.
It is to be understood that this action is not to be taken as a precedent for similar action in any future case; and hereafter in making any appointments or employments, when it is not possible to make selection for that purpose from certifications from the Civil Service Commission's eligible registers, persons employed without examination shall not thereafter be brought into the classified service by special order.
