OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE and/or TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE. - OBSTRUCCION A LA JUSTICIA y / o MANIPULACION DE PRUEBAS.

The new Condo Criminal Law is now in effect.

Now,  if the Association fails to provide an owner access to records you will be able to call law enforcement and press charges for OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE and/or TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE.

The following language has been added to Florida Statute 718.111 (1) d:

“Forgery of a ballot envelope or voting certificate used in a condominium association election is punishable as provided in s. 831.01, the theft or embezzlement of funds of a condominium association is punishable as provided in s. 812.014, and the destruction of or the refusal to allow inspection or copying of an official record of a condominium association that is accessible to unit owners within the time periods required by general law in furtherance of any crime is punishable as tampering with physical evidence as provided in s. 918.13 or as obstruction of justice as provided in chapter 843. An officer or director charged by information or indictment with a crime referenced in this paragraph must be removed from office, and the vacancy shall be filled as provided in s. 718.112(2)(d)2. until the end of the officer's or director's period of suspension or the end of his or her term of office, whichever occurs first. If a criminal charge is pending against the officer or director, he or she may not be appointed or elected to a position as an officer or a director of any association and may not have access to the official records of any association, except pursuant to a court order. However, if the charges are resolved without a finding of guilt, the officer or director must be reinstated for the remainder of his or her term of office, if any.”

La nueva Ley Penal de Condominios está ya vigente.



Ahora si la Asociación no proporciona a un propietario acceso a los documentos oficiales, el propetario podrá llamar a las autoridades encargadas de hacer cumplir la ley y presentar cargos por OBSTRUCCION A LA JUSTICIA y / o MANIPULACION DE PRUEBAS.

El siguiente lenguaje ha sido añadido al Estatuto de la Florida 718.111 (1) d:

Un oficial o director acusado por información o acusación con un crimen referido en este párrafo debe ser apartado de su cargo y la vacante será ocupada como se provee en el s. 718.112 (2) (d) 2. Hasta el final del período de suspensión del funcionario o director o el término de su mandato, lo que ocurra primero. Si una acusación penal está pendiente contra el oficial o director, él o ella no puede ser nombrado o elegido para un puesto como oficial o director de cualquier asociación y no puede tener acceso a los registros oficiales de cualquier asociación, excepto de conformidad con un mandato judicial. Sin embargo, si los cargos se resuelven sin una declaración de culpabilidad, el funcionario o director debe ser reintegrado por el resto de su mandato, en su caso.
