  IN RE: STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES—
                     REPORT 2018-04.

                                November 15, 2018

PER CURIAM.

      The Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal

Cases (Committee) has submitted proposed changes to the standard jury

instructions and asks that the Court authorize the amended standard instructions for

publication and use. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.

      The Committee proposes amending standard criminal jury instructions 11.7

(Unlawful Sexual Activity with Certain Minors), 11.10 (Lewd, Lascivious,

Indecent Assault or Act Upon or in the Presence of Child; Sexual Battery),

11.10(a) (Lewd or Lascivious Battery (Engaging in Sexual Activity)), 11.10(b)

(Lewd or Lascivious Battery (Encouraging, Forcing or Enticing)), 11.10(c) (Lewd

or Lascivious Molestation), 11.10(d) (Lewd or Lascivious Conduct), 11.10(e)

(Lewd or Lascivious Exhibition Presence of Child), 11.10(f) (Lewd or Lascivious
Exhibition Over Computer Service), 11.10(g) (Lewd or Lascivious Exhibition by a

Detainee in the Presence of an Employee of a Facility), 11.11 (Lewd or Lascivious

Offenses Committed Upon or in the Presence of an Elderly Person or Disabled

Person), 11.12 (Incest), 11.18 (Sexual Misconduct by a Psychotherapist), 11.21

(Transmission of Material Harmful to Minors by Electronic Device or Equipment),

and 29.13(c) (Sexual Activity with an Animal). All of the proposals were

published in The Florida Bar News. No comments were received by the

Committee.

         We authorize for publication and use instructions 11.7, 11.10(b), 11.10(c),

11.10(d), 11.10(e), 11.10(f), 11.10(g), 11.18, and 11.21 as proposed. Instruction

11.10(a) is authorized for publication and use as set forth in Appendix A to the

Committee’s report, rather than as described in the report. Instructions 11.10,

11.11, 11.12, and 29.13(c) are authorized for publication and use as modified. The

more significant amendments to the instructions are discussed below.

         First, the following changes are common with regard to many of the

instructions.

         Instructions 11.10, 11.10(a), 11.10(b), 11.10(c), and 11.10(d) as authorized

reverse the order of the elements pertaining to the victim’s and/or the defendant’s

ages and the defendant’s conduct, so that the defendant’s conduct is listed first in

order.

                                          -2-
       The offense of Unnatural and Lascivious Act is added to the table of lesser-

included offenses as a Category Two lesser offense to instructions 11.7, 11.10(f),

11.18, and 29.13, and a new comment based in part upon State v. Knighton, 235
So. 3d 312 (Fla. 2018), modifies that lesser-included offense, as follows:

       The courts do not require the State to allege the defendant’s act was
       “unnatural” or “against the laws of nature” in order for § 800.02, Fla.
       Stat., to be given as a lesser-included offense. If the sexual activity
       involved penile-vaginal sexual intercourse (or contact), § 800.02, Fla.
       Stat. should not be given as a lesser-included offense. However, if the
       sexual activity involved something other than penile-vaginal sexual
       intercourse (or contact), § 800.02, Fla. Stat. should be given as a
       lesser-included offense. See State v. Knighton, 235 So. 3d 312 (Fla.
       2018).[1]

       Definitions for “bona fide” and “union” are added to the instructions as

applicable, and the term “enhancement” is replaced by “reclassification” in

instructions 11.7, 11.10(a), 11.10(b), 11.10(c), 11.10(d), 11.10(e), 11.11, and

11.21, because section 775.0862, Florida Statutes (2018), is a reclassification

statute.

       Lastly, in instructions 11.10(e), 11.10(g), and 11.11, the statutory definitions

for “sadomasochistic abuse” and “sexual bestiality” are changed from those in

sections 847.001(13) and 847.001(15), Florida Statutes (2018), respectively, to

       1. As proposed, the comment to instruction 11.10 was separated into
individual paragraphs and the paragraph citing Knighton did not include the
referencing asterisk. We have modified the comment so that it is consistent with
the other instructions herein at issue.

                                         -3-
those in sections 827.071(e) and 827.071(g), Florida Statutes (2018), respectively,

and the following new comment is added: “There are statutory definitions of

‘sadomasochistic abuse’ and ‘sexual bestiality’ in § 847.001, Fla. Stat., that differ

from the statutory definitions in § 827.071, Fla. Stat. As of June 2018, there is no

case law that decides which definition applies for a violation of [§ 800.04(7)(a), §

800.09, or § 825.1025, as applicable], Fla. Stat.”

        Turning to the individual instructions, the following additional changes are

made.

        We clarify that instruction 11.10 applies only to offenses committed prior to

October 1, 1999.

        In addition, we authorize instruction 11.10(a) as set out in the Committee’s

Appendix A to its report, leaving the offense of Unnatural and Lascivious Act as a

Category Two lesser-included offense rather than moving it to the Category One

box as discussed in the report.

        In instruction 11.10(b), the statutory citations for “sadomasochistic abuse”

and “sexual bestiality,” sections 847.001(13) and 847.001(15), respectively, are

removed, leaving the citations to sections 827.071(e) and 827.071(g), respectively.

In addition, the comment added to instructions 11.10(e), 11.10(g), and 11.11 as set

forth above, addressing section 847.001 statutory definitions, is also included in

instruction 11.10(b).

                                         -4-
      The table of lesser-included offenses is updated in instruction 11.10(c) to

reflect in the heading the primary offense of Lewd or Lascivious Molestation—

Defendant 18 or Over; Victim Less Than 12, and that Lewd or Lascivious

Molestation based upon the ages of the victim and/or the defendant are Category

One lesser-included offenses, similar to the table of lesser-included offenses in

instruction 11.1 (Sexual Battery—Victim Less Than 12 Years of Age).

      Instruction 11.11, element three, pertaining to the defendant’s knowledge, is

modified to provide “at the time of the offense,” which is consistent with

instructions 11.10(a), 11.10(b), 11.10(c), 11.10(d), 11.10(e), and 11.10(f).

      With regard to instruction 11.12, the table of lesser-included offenses is

modified from the Committee’s proposal to reflect that Unnatural and Lascivious

Act is a Category Two lesser offense and includes the corresponding comment

described above.

      Definitions for “prurient interest” and “morbid interest” have been added to

instruction 11.21, and are the same definitions for those terms already provided in

instructions 24.1-24.6, the obscenity-related instructions.

      Last, we decline the Committee’s request that instruction 29.13(c) be

authorized to include Unnatural and Lascivious Act as a Category One lesser-

included offense, as that presents a matter of substantive law to be decided in a

case or controversy, and to date it does not appear that that issue has expressly

                                         -5-
been addressed. See art. V, § 3(b), Fla. Const.; cf. In re Std. Jury Instr. in Crim.

Cases—Report No. 2015-05, 195 So. 3d 1088, 1089 (Fla. 2016) (stating that the

issue of the constitutionality of a statutory provision that an instruction is based

upon is beyond the scope of a jury instruction case).

      Having considered the Committee’s report, we authorize the amended

instructions, as set forth in the appendix to this opinion, for publication and use.2

New language is indicated by underlining, and deleted language is indicated by

struck-through type. We caution all interested parties that any comments

associated with the instructions reflect only the opinion of the Committee and are

not necessarily indicative of the views of this Court as to their correctness or

applicability. In authorizing the publication and use of these instructions, we

express no opinion on their correctness and remind all interested parties that this

authorization forecloses neither requesting additional or alternative instructions nor

contesting the legal correctness of the instructions. The instructions as set forth in

the appendix shall become effective when this opinion becomes final.

      It is so ordered.

       2. The amendments as reflected in the appendix are to the Criminal Jury
Instructions as they appear on the Court’s website at www.floridasupremecourt.org
/jury_instructions/instructions.shtml. We recognize that there may be minor
discrepancies between the instructions as they appear on the website and the
published versions of the instructions. Any discrepancies as to instructions
authorized for publication and use after October 25, 2007, should be resolved by
reference to the published opinion of this Court authorizing the instruction.

    11.7 UNLAWFUL SEXUAL ACTIVITY WITH CERTAIN MINORS
                      § 794.05, Fla. Stat.

     To prove the crime of Sexual Activity with a Minor, the State must
prove the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      Give 1a and/or 1b depending on the allegations and the evidence.
      1. a. (Defendant) committed an act with (victim) in which the sexual
            organ of the [(defendant)] [(victim)] penetrated or had union with
            the [anus] [vagina] [mouth] of the [(victim)] [(defendant)].

           b. (Defendant) committed an act with (victim) in which the [anus]
              [vagina] of [(victim)] [(defendant)] was penetrated by an object.
              The definition of “an object” includes a finger.

      2.      At the time, (defendant) was 24 years of age or older.

      3.      At the time, (victim) was 16 or 17 years of age.

      Give if applicable.
      “Union” means contact.

      Give if applicable.
      Lakey v. State, 113 So. 3d 90 (Fla. 5th DCA 2013).
      The definition of “an object” includes a finger.

     Give if applicable.
     § 794.05(1), Fla. Stat.
     Sexual activity does not include an act done for a bona fide medical
purpose.

      Give if requested. § 794.05(3), Fla. Stat.
      (Victim’s) lack of chastity is not a defense to the crime charged.

      Give if requested. Feliciano v. State, 937 So. 2d 818 (Fla. 1st DCA 2006);
§ 794.021, Fla. Stat.

                                        -8-
       The defendant’s ignorance of (victim’s) age, (victim’s) misrepresentation
of his or her age, or the defendant’s bona fide belief of (victim’s) age is not a
defense to the crime charged.

      Give if applicable.

      “Bona fide” means genuine.

       § 775.0862, Fla. Stat.
       EnhancementReclassification for sexual offense against student by school
authority figure.
       If you find that (defendant) committed the crime of Sexual Activity With
a Minor, you must also determine whether the State has proved beyond a
reasonable doubt that (defendant) was an authority figure at a school and
(victim) was a student at the same school.

     “Authority figure” means a person 18 years of age or older who is
employed by, volunteering at, or under contract with a school.

       “School” means an organization of students for instructional purposes
on an elementary, middle or junior high school, secondary or high school, [or
other public school level authorized under the rules of the State Board of
Education]. The term “school” does not include facilities dedicated exclusively
to the education of adults. If needed, insert appropriate definitions from
§ 775.0862(1)(b), Fla. Stat. for “private school” or “voluntary prekindergarten
education program” or “early learning program” or “public school as described
in s. 402.3025(1)” or “the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind” or the
“Florida Virtual School” or the “K-8 Virtual School.”

       “Student” means a person younger than 18 years of age who is enrolled
at a school.

       To prove the crime of (crime charged), the State must prove the
following two elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Victim) was under the age of 16 years.

      Give as applicable.
      2.1. (Defendant)

             a.     [made an assault upon (victim) in a lewd, lascivious, or
                    indecent manner].

                    [handled or fondled (victim) in a lewd, lascivious, or
                    indecent manner].

                                        - 10 -
              b.    (Defendant) committed upon (victim) or forced or enticed
                    (victim) to commit

                    [actual or simulated sexual intercourse].
                    [deviate sexual intercourse].
                    [sexual bestiality].
                    [masturbation].
                    [sadomasochistic abuse].
                    [actual lewd exhibition of the genitals].
                    [any act or conduct which simulated that sexual battery was
                    being or would be committed on (victim)].
              c.    (Defendant)

                    [committed an act [upon] [with] (victim) in which the sexual
                    organ of the [(defendant)] [(victim)] penetrated or had union
                    with the [anus] [vagina] [mouth] of [(victim)] [(defendant)]].
                    [committed an act upon (victim) in which the [anus]
                    [vagina] of (victim) was penetrated by an object].

              d.    (Defendant) knowingly committed a lewd or lascivious act in
                    the presence of (victim).

        2.    At the time, (victim) was under the age of 16 years.

     Definitions.
     Give in all cases.
     Neither the victim’s(victim’s) lack of chastity nor the victim’s(victim’s)
consent is a defense to the crime charged.

       Give when pre-October 1, 1999 § 800.04(1), Fla. Stat., is charged.
       As used in regard to this offense, the words “lewd,” “lascivious,” and
“indecent” mean the same thing:. They mean a wicked, lustful, unchaste,
licentious, or sensual intent on the part of the person doing an act.

        Give when assault is charged under pre-October 1, 1999 § 800.04(1), Fla.
Stat.
      An “assault” is an intentional, unlawful threat by word or act to do
violence to the person of another, coupled with an apparent ability to do so,
and doing some act which creates a well-founded fear in such other person
that such violence is imminent.

                                       - 11 -
     Give when pre-October 1, 1999 § 800.04(4), Fla. Stat., is charged.
     As used in regard to this offense the words “lewd” and “lascivious”
mean the same thing: and mean a wicked, lustful, unchaste, licentious, or
sensual intent on the part of the person doing an act.

      State v. Werner, 609 So. 2d 585 (Fla. 1992).
      “In the presence of” means that (victim) saw, heard, or otherwise sensed
that the act was taking place.

      Give if applicable.
      “Union” means contact.

      See State v. Werner, 609 So. 2d 585 (Fla. 1992).

      Give applicable definitions from § 847.001, Fla. Stat., when pre-October 1,
1999 § 800.04(2), Fla. Stat., is charged.

       There is no need to make reference to the words “without committing the
crime of sexual battery” because this refers to forcible sexual relations. Lanier v.
State, 443 So. 2d 178 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983); Chapters 84–86, Laws of Florida.

      *The courts do not require the State to allege the defendant’s act was
“unnatural” or “against the laws of nature” in order for § 800.02, Fla. Stat., to be
given as a lesser-included offense. If the sexual activity involved penile-vaginal
sexual intercourse (or contact), § 800.02, Fla. Stat. should not be given as a lesser-
included offense. However, if the sexual activity involved something other than

                                        - 12 -
penile-vaginal sexual intercourse (or contact), § 800.02, Fla. Stat. should be given
as a lesser-included offense. See State v. Knighton, 235 So. 3d 312 (Fla. 2018).

       *Because the crime of Unnatural and Lascivious Act (§ 800.02, Fla. Stat.)
requires the defendant’s act be “with another person,” it should not be given as a
lesser-included offense if the only evidence is that the defendant committed a lewd
or lascivious act in the presence of the victim (element #1d).

      This instruction was adopted in 1981 and was amended in 1985 [477 So. 2d
985], 1987 [508 So. 2d 1221], 1992 [603 So. 2d 1175], 1995 [657 So. 2d 1152],

       To prove the crime of Lewd or Lascivious Battery, the State must prove
the following two elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Victim) was twelve years of age or older, but under the age of
             sixteen years.

      Give 1a and/or 1b as applicable.

      *The courts do not require the State to allege the defendant’s act was
“unnatural” or “against the laws of nature” in order for § 800.02, Fla. Stat., to be
given as a lesser-included offense. If the sexual activity involved penile-vaginal
sexual intercourse (or contact), § 800.02, Fla. Stat. should not be given as a lesser-
included offense. However, if the sexual activity involved something other than

        3. (Defendant) sent the image, information or data via electronic mail.

under any circumstance constitute “nudity,” irrespective of whether or not
the nipple is covered during or incidental to feeding.

      “Sexual conduct” means actual or simulated sexual intercourse, deviate
sexual intercourse, sexual bestiality, masturbation, or sadomasochistic abuse;
actual lewd exhibition of the genitals; actual physical contact with a person’s
clothed or unclosed genitals, pubic area, buttocks, or, if such person is a
female, breast with the intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of either
party; or any act or conduct which constitutes sexual battery or simulates that
sexual battery is being or will be committed. A mother’s breastfeeding of her
baby does not under any circumstance constitute “sexual conduct.”
