FL S1244

Law enforcement agencies may issue subpoenas in investigations of child sexual exploitation, unregistered sex offenders, or offenses meeting sexual predator criteria under section 775.21.

Subpoenas to electronic communication service providers in child sexual exploitation cases are limited to information specified in section 775.21 relevant to the investigation.

Recipients of subpoenas with nondisclosure certifications may not disclose the subpoena's existence for 180 days, with exceptions for compliance personnel, attorneys, and authorized disclosures; violations subject to judicial review.

Subpoenas for unregistered sex offenders must allow recipients at least 24 hours to produce records; law enforcement may enforce compliance through court petition and contempt proceedings.

Recipients of subpoenas are granted immunity from civil liability for good faith compliance, and nondisclosure requirements are subject to district court of appeal review with potential 180-day extensions based on risk to safety, evidence, witnesses, or investigation integrity.
