Florida Department of Health, Etc., et. al. v. Florigrown, LLC, et. al.
In 2016, voters approved an amendment to the state constitution to allow the use of marijuana for medical purposes. The Amendment requires the Department of Health to issue regulations to implement and enforce its safe use. In 2017, the Florida Legislature amended a Florida statute governing medical marijuana in relation to the constitutional Amendment. Florigrown and others filed a lawsuit in the trial court challenging the constitutionality of the statute. The trial court entered a temporary injunction against the enforcement of the statute based on a determination that Florigrown has a substantial likelihood of success on the merits of its claims. The Department of Health appealed to the First District Court of Appeal, which agreed with the trial court but certified a question of great public importance to this Court for review.

State of Florida v. Brian K. McKenzie
Mr. McKenzie was sentenced to six months incarceration, two years community control, and three years probation for engaging in sexual activity with a child. After Mr. McKenzie completed his sentence, the State of Florida filed a notice to designate him as a sexual predator, and the trial court imposed the designation. Mr. McKenzie appealed to the Fifth District Court of Appeal arguing that the trial court did not have the authority to designate him as a sexual predator. The Fifth DCA agreed with Mr. McKenzie. The State of Florida asks this Court to review the decision because it conflicts with another appellate court decision.
