  IN RE: STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES—
                     REPORT 2016-09.

                                 [April 27, 2017]

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 proposed amending the following standard criminal jury

instructions: 25.2 (Sale, Purchase, Manufacture, Delivery, or Possession with

Intent to Sell, Purchase, Manufacture, or Deliver a Controlled Substance); 25.3

(Sale, Purchase, Delivery, or Possession in Excess of Ten Grams of a Controlled

Substance); 25.4 (Delivery of a Controlled Substance To or Use of Minor); 25.5

(Bringing a Controlled Substance into the State); 25.6 (Sell, Manufacture, Deliver,

or Possession with Intent to Sell, Manufacture or Deliver a Controlled Substance in
Specified Locations); 25.7 (Possession of a Controlled Substance); 25.8 (Obtaining

a Controlled Substance by Fraud, Etc.); 25.9 (Trafficking in Cannabis); 25.10

(Trafficking in Cocaine); 25.11 (Trafficking in [Morphine] [Opium]

[Hydromorphone] [Heroin] [(Specific Substance Alleged)]); 25.11(a) (Trafficking

in Hydrocodone); 25.11(b) (Trafficking in Oxycodone); 25.12 (Trafficking in

Phencyclidine); 25.13 (Trafficking in Methaqualone); 25.13(a) (Trafficking in

[Amphetamine] [Methamphetamine]); 25.13(b) (Trafficking in Flunitrazepam);

25.13(c) (Trafficking in [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol]); 25.13(d) (Trafficking in

Phenethylamines (Includes MDMA)); 25.13(e) (Trafficking in LSD); 25.14 (Use

or Possession with Intent to Use Drug Paraphernalia); 25.15 (Delivery, Possession

25.16 (Delivery of Drug Paraphernalia to a Minor); 25.17 (Contraband in County

Detention Facility); 25.18 (Contraband in Juvenile [Detention Facility]

[Commitment Program]); 25.20 (Possession of Contraband [In] [Upon the Grounds

of] a State Correctional Institution); and 25.21 ([Introduction] [Removal] of

Contraband [Into] [From] a State Correctional Institution). The Committee

published its proposals in The Florida Bar News. One comment was received by

the Committee. The Court did not publish the proposals after they were filed.




                                        -2-
          Having considered the Committee’s report and the comment submitted to

the Committee, we amend the standard jury instructions as proposed by the

Committee, and authorize them for publication and use.1

          We note the following significant changes to the jury instructions as

amended. First, regarding Instructions 25.2, 25.3, 25.4, 25.5, 25.6, 25.7, 25.8,

25.17, 25.18, 25.20, and 25.21, the italicized note above the “Affirmative defense –

Lack of knowledge of illicit nature” section is simplified by replacing “Give if

there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the

substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit

nature” with “Give if applicable.”

          Next, in Instructions 25.2, 25.3, 25.4, 25.5, 25.6, 25.7, 25.8, 25.17, 25.18,

25.20, and 25.21, the sentence “(Defendant) has raised this defense” is removed

from the “Affirmative defense – Lack of knowledge of illicit nature” instruction

itself.

          Last, in Instructions 25.2 and 25.7, the statutory references to sections

893.03(1)(c)46-50, 114-142, 151-159, and 166-173, Florida Statutes, are removed

from the Comments section of Instruction 25.2 and the fourth element of the crime

and Lesser Included Offenses table of Instruction 25.7. These amendments track




          1. Technical changes to the amended jury instructions are not discussed.


                                            -3-
recent statutory changes, by which the Legislature removed references to synthetic

cannabis from section 893.13(6)(b), Florida Statutes (2016). See Ch. 2016-105,

§ 5, Laws of Fla. Additionally, in Instructions 25.2, 25.5, 25.6, 25.7, 25.8, and

25.9, the phrase “medical marijuana” is replaced with “medical cannabis” and the

statutory reference for the definitions of “medical cannabis” and “low-THC

cannabis” in the Comments section of the instructions is updated. These changes

are consistent with recent legislative changes. See Ch. 2016-123, Laws of Fla.

      The amended criminal jury instructions, as set forth in the appendix to this

opinion, are hereby authorized for publication and use.2 New language is indicated

by underlining, and deleted language is indicated by struck-through type. 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. We further caution all interested parties that any

comments associated with the instructions reflect only the opinion of the



       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.

correctness or applicability. The instructions as set forth in the appendix shall

become effective when this opinion becomes final.

      It is so ordered.

                                   APPENDIX

25.2 SALE, PURCHASE, MANUFACTURE, DELIVERY, OR POSSESSION
 WITH INTENT TO SELL, PURCHASE, MANUFACTURE, OR DELIVER
                 A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE
                 § 893.13(1)(a) and (2)(a), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” (Specific substance alleged) is a controlled substance.

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

      1.    (Defendant) [sold] [manufactured] [delivered] [purchased]
            [possessed with intent to [sell] [manufacture] [deliver] [purchase]]
            a certain substance.

      2.    The substance was (specific substance alleged).

      3.    (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of the substance.

      Delivery of 20 Grams or Less of Cannabis without consideration is a
misdemeanor. See § 893.13(3), Fla. Stat. If the State charges the felony of Delivery
of More Than 20 Grams of Cannabis, the jury must make a finding as to the
weight. Give if applicable.
      If you find that (defendant) is guilty of Delivery of Cannabis, you must
then determine if the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the
cannabis weighed more than 20 grams.

     Definitions. Give as applicable.
     Cannabis. §§§ 893.02(3); 893.13(3); 893.13(6)(b), Fla. Stats.
     See Comment section for medical marijuana.
     Cannabis means all parts of any plant of the genus Cannabis, whether
growing or not and the seeds thereof.

     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.




                                        -6-
       Manufacture. § 893.02(15)(a), Fla. Stat.
       “Manufacture” means the production, preparation, propagation,
compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion, or processing of a controlled
substance, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of
natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis, or by a
combination of extraction and chemical synthesis, and includes any packaging
of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

      1. A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
         administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course of
         his or her professional practice.

      2. A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the
         practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
         research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.

      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or
            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.




                                      -7-
      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.     had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
            b.     was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                   was under [his] [her] control, [or]
            c.     had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.




                                       -8-
      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA
2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to (crime charged). (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the controlled substance and exercised control or ownership over
the substance.

      Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of (crime charged).

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of (crime charged).

of Cannabis if
Delivery of
More than 20

Cannabis is

                                    Comments

      If the State alleges the defendant possessed cannabis, in an amount more
than 20 grams, with intent to sell, purchase, deliver, or manufacture the cannabis,
there will be both a felony necessary lesser-included offense of simple possession
and a misdemeanor lesser-included offense of simple possession. See
§ 893.13(6)(b), Fla. Stat.

      If the State alleges the defendant possessed a controlled substance listed in
§ 893.03(1)(c)46.–50., 114.–142., 151.–159, or 166.–173., in an amount more than
3 grams, there will be both a felony necessary lesser-included offense of simple
possession and a misdemeanor necessary lesser-included offense of simple
possession. See § 893.13(6)(b), Fla. Stat.

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”
in § 893.03(6), Fla. Stat. includes the attempt to transfer from one person to
another.



                                       - 10 -
      In Starting in 2014, the legislature passed laws pertaining to medical
marijuana, also known as “medical cannabis” or “low-THC cannabis,” which is
excluded from the definition of “cannabis” in § 893.02(3), Fla. Stat.; is defined in
§ 381.986(1)(b), Fla. Stat.; and must be manufactured, possessed, sold, purchased,
delivered, distributed, or dispensed in conformance with § 381.986, Fla. Stat. A
special instruction will be necessary in cases where a defendant relies on a
cannabis-related prescription defense.

      This instruction was adopted in 1981 and amended in 1989 [543 So. 2d
1205], 1997 [697 So. 2d 84], 2007 [969 So. 2d 245], 2014 [153 So. 3d 192], and
2016 [191 So. 3d 291], and 2017.

 25.3 SALE, PURCHASE, DELIVERY, OR POSSESSION IN EXCESS OF
           TEN GRAMS OF A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE
               § 893.13(1)(b), (2)(b), and (6)(c), Fla. Stat.

      This instruction will have to be altered if a combination of substances is
alleged.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” (Specific substance alleged) is a controlled substance.

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

      1.     (Defendant) [sold] [purchased] [delivered] [possessed] a certain
             substance that weighed more than 10 grams.

      2.     The substance was (specific substance alleged).

      3.     (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of the substance.

     Definitions. Give as applicable.
     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.

                   person, or
            c.     The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of

                   § 893.13(1)(c)–(f) and (h), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” (Specific substance alleged) is a controlled substance.

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

      1.     (Defendant) [sold] [manufactured] [delivered] [possessed with
             intent to [sell] [manufacture] [deliver]] a certain substance.

      Give as applicable. § 893.13(1)(c)–(f) and (h), Fla. Stat.

     3.    The substance was (specific substance alleged).

     4.    (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of the substance.

     Definitions. Give as applicable.
     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.

       Manufacture. § 893.02(15)(a), Fla. Stat.
       “Manufacture” means the production, preparation, propagation,
compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion, or processing of a controlled
substance, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of
natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis, or by a
combination of extraction and chemical synthesis, and includes any packaging
of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

     1.    A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
           administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course
           of his or her professional practice.

     2.    A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the

                                    - 19 -
      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.     The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.     The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                   person, or
            c.     The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                   under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.


                                      - 20 -
       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.    had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
            b.    was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                  was under [his] [her] control, [or]
            c.    had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                  located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA
2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

      Child care facility. § 402.302, Fla. Stat.
      “Child care facility” means any child care center or arrangement which
provides child care for more than five children unrelated to the operator and
which receives a payment, fee, or grant for any of the children receiving care.
It does not matter if the child care facility is operated for profit or as a
nonprofit operation.

      Convenience business. § 812.171, Fla. Stat.
      A “convenience business” means any place of business that is primarily
engaged in the retail sale of groceries, or both groceries and gasoline, and that
is open for business at any time between the hours of 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. The

                                      - 21 -
term does not include any of the following: a business that is primarily a
restaurant, or one that always has at least five employees on the premises
after 11 p.m. and before 5 a.m., or one that has at least 10,000 square feet of
retail floor space. The term “convenience business” also does not include any
business in which the owner or members of [his] [her] family work between
the hours of 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.

      Real property comprising a public housing facility. § 421.03(12), Fla. Stat.
      The term “real property comprising a public housing facility” is defined
as the real property of a public corporation created as a housing authority by
statute.

     Community Center. § 893.13(1)(c), Fla. Stat.
     The term “community center” means a facility operated by a nonprofit
community-based organization for the provision of recreational, social, or
educational services to the public.

      Assisted living facility. § 429.02(5), Fla. Stat.
      “Assisted living facility” means any building or buildings, section or
distinct part of a building, private home, boarding home, home for the aged,
or other residential facility, whether operated for profit or not, which
undertakes through its ownership or management to provide housing, meals,
and one or more personal services for a period exceeding 24 hours to one or
more adults who are not relatives of the owner or administrator.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to (crime charged). (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the controlled substance and exercised control or ownership over
the substance.

      Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.


                                        - 22 -
       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of (crime charged).

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of (crime charged).

control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be in
possession of the substance.

Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

             a.    had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
             b.    was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                   was under [his] [her] control, [or]
             c.    had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA

      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.

      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to (crime charged). (Defendant) has raised this defense.

     You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the



                                        - 26 -
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Possession of a
Controlled Substance.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Possession of a Controlled Substance.

      § 893.21, Fla. Stat.
      A person acting in good faith who seeks medical assistance for an individual
experiencing a drug-related overdose may not be prosecuted for Possession of a
Controlled Substance if the evidence of the possession was obtained as a result of
the person’s seeking medical assistance.

      A special instruction is necessary when the defense is a mere involuntary or
superficial possession. See cases such as Hamilton v. State, 732 So. 2d 493 (Fla. 2d
DCA 1999) and Sanders v. State, 563 So. 2d 781 (Fla. 1st DCA 1990).

      In Starting in 2014, the legislature passed laws pertaining to medical
marijuana, also known as “medical cannabis” or “low-THC cannabis,” which is
excluded from the definition of “cannabis” in § 893.02(3), Fla. Stat.; is defined in §
381.986(1)(b), Fla. Stat.; and must be manufactured, possessed, sold, purchased,
delivered, distributed, or dispensed in conformance with § 381.986, Fla. Stat. A
special instruction will be necessary in cases where a defendant relies on a
cannabis-related prescription defense.

substances.” (Specific substance alleged) is a controlled substance.

     To prove the crime of Obtaining a Controlled Substance by
[Misrepresentation] [Fraud] [Forgery] [Deception] [Subterfuge], the State
must prove the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) [acquired or obtained] [attempted to acquire or

there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to the crime of Obtaining a Controlled Substance by

has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that (defendant) was in actual or
constructive possession of the controlled substance. Read explanation of actual
and/or constructive possession, as applicable.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Obtaining a
Controlled Substance by [Misrepresentation] [Fraud] [Forgery] [Deception]

                            § 893.135(1)(a), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” Cannabis is a controlled substance.

      To prove the crime of Trafficking in Cannabis, the State must prove the
following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
             [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain
             substance.

      2.     The substance was cannabis.

      3.     The cannabis [weighed more than 25 pounds] [constituted 300 or
             more cannabis plants].

        If applicable under the facts of the case and pursuant to § 893.135(2), Fla.
Stat., instructions on the following elements 1 and 2 should be given instead of
elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to
sell heroin but actually sold cannabis, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below
would be given.
        1.     (Defendant) intended to [sell] [purchase] [manufacture] [deliver]
               [bring into Florida] [possess] (an enumerated controlled substance in
               § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).

      2.     The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured]
             [delivered] [brought into Florida] [possessed] cannabis.

      “Cannabis” means all parts of any plant of the genus Cannabis whether
growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of the
plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or
preparation of the plant or its seeds or resin.

     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.

       Manufacture. § 893.02(15)(a), Fla. Stat.
       “Manufacture” means the production, preparation, propagation,
compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion, or processing of a controlled
substance, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of
natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis, or by a
combination of extraction and chemical synthesis, and includes any packaging
of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

      1.    A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
            administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course
            of his or her professional practice.

      2.    A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the
            practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
            research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.

      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.




                                     - 31 -
      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.     The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.     The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                   person, or
            c.     The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                   under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA

substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Cannabis. (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

      Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Trafficking in
Cannabis.

                                        - 33 -
      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Trafficking in Cannabis.

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Cannabis, you must
further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond a
reasonable doubt that:

      Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(a)1.–3., Fla. Stat. to verify the weights
or amounts specified in the statute, as determined by the date of the offense. Give if
applicable up to extent of charge.
            a.     [The cannabis weighed more than 25 pounds but less than
                   2,000 pounds.] [constituted 300 or more cannabis plants but
                   not more than 2,000 cannabis plants.]]

             b.    [The cannabis [weighed 2,000 pounds or more but less than
                   10,000 pounds.] [constituted 2,000 or more cannabis plants
                   but not more than 10,000 cannabis plants.]]

             c.    [The cannabis [weighed 10,000 pounds or more.]
                   [constituted 10,000 or more cannabis plants.]

                             Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

                                     Comments

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”
in § 893.03(6), Fla. Stat., includes the attempt to transfer from one person to
another. There is no crime of attempted conspiracy. Hutchinson v. State, 315 So.

                            § 893.135(1)(b), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” Cocaine [or any mixture containing cocaine] is a controlled
substance.

      To prove the crime of Trafficking in Cocaine, the State must prove the
following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
             [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain

            b.     The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                   person, or
            c.     The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                   under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

             a.    had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
             b.    was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                   was under [his] [her] control, [or]
             c.    had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA
2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.

      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Cocaine. (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Trafficking in
Cocaine.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Trafficking in Cocaine.

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Cocaine, you must
further determine by your verdict whether the State has further proved

      Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(b)1.–2., Fla. Stat. to verify the weights
or amounts specified in the statute, as determined by the date of the offense. Give if
applicable up to extent of charge.
            a.     [The [cocaine][mixture containing cocaine] weighed 28
                   grams or more but less than 200 grams.]

             b.    [The [cocaine][mixture containing cocaine] weighed 200

                             Lesser Included Offenses

      Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant


                                        - 39 -
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”
in § 893.03(6), Fla. Stat., includes the attempt to transfer from one person to
another. There is no crime of attempted conspiracy. Hutchinson v. State, 315 So.

 25.11 TRAFFICKING IN [MORPHINE] [OPIUM] [HYDROMORPHONE]
           [HEROIN] [(SPECIFIC SUBSTANCE ALLEGED)]
             § 893.135(1)(c)1. and § 893.135(1)(c)4., Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” (Specific substance alleged) or any mixture containing (specific
substance alleged) is a controlled substance.

      To prove the crime of Trafficking in [(specific substance alleged)], the
State must prove the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
             [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain
             substance.

      2.     The substance was [morphine] [opium] [hydromorphone] [heroin]
             [(specific substance alleged)] [a mixture containing [morphine]
             [opium] [hydromorphone] [heroin] [(specific substance alleged)].

      3.     The [morphine] [opium] [hydromorphone] [heroin] [(specific
             substance alleged)] [mixture containing [morphine] [opium]
             [hydromorphone] [heroin] [(specific substance alleged)] weighed 4
             grams or more.

        If applicable under the facts of the case and pursuant to § 893.135(2), Fla.
Stat., instructions on the following elements 1 and 2 should be given instead of


                                        - 40 -
elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to
sell heroin but actually sold hydromorphone, instructions on elements 1 and 2
below would be given.
       1.    (Defendant) intended to [sell] [purchase] [manufacture] [deliver]
             [bring into Florida] [possess] (an enumerated controlled substance in
             § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).

      2.    The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured]
            [delivered] [brought into Florida] [possessed] (specific substance
            alleged) or a mixture containing (specific substance alleged).

of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

      1.    A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
            administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course
            of his or her professional practice.

      2.    A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the
            practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
            research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.

      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

thermal.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or

      1.     (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
             [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain
             substance.


                                        - 45 -
      2.     The substance was [hydrocodone] [a mixture containing

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or

            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or

            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly

                             Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

                                     Comments

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”
in § 893.03(6), Fla. Stat., includes the attempt to transfer from one person to
another. There is no crime of attempted conspiracy. Hutchinson v. State, 315 So.
2d 546 (Fla. 2d DCA 1975).

      This instruction was adopted in 2016 [191 So. 3d 291] and amended in 2017.

                   25.11(b) TRAFFICKING IN OXYCODONE
                  § 893.135(1)(c)3. and § 893.135(1)(c)4., Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” Oxycodone [or any mixture containing oxycodone] is a controlled
substance.

       To prove the crime of Trafficking in Oxycodone, the State must prove
the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
             [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain
             substance.




                                        - 50 -
      2.    The substance was [oxycodone] [a mixture containing
            [oxycodone].

      3.    The [oxycodone] [mixture containing oxycodone] weighed 7
            grams or more.

        If applicable under the facts of the case and pursuant to § 893.135(2), Fla.
Stat., instructions on the following elements 1 and 2 should be given instead of
elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to
sell heroin but actually sold oxycodone, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below
would be given.
        1.     (Defendant) intended to [sell] [purchase] [manufacture] [deliver]
               [bring into Florida] [possess] (an enumerated controlled substance in
               § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).

      2.    The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured]
            [delivered] [brought into Florida] [possessed] oxycodone or a
            mixture containing oxycodone.

     Definitions. Give as applicable.
     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.

       Manufacture. § 893.02(15)(a), Fla. Stat.
       “Manufacture” means the production, preparation, propagation,
compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion, or processing of a controlled
substance, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of
natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis, or by a
combination of extraction and chemical synthesis, and includes any packaging
of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

      1.    A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
            administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course
            of his or her professional practice.


                                       - 51 -
      2.    A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the
            practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
            research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.

      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

      Mixture. § 893.02(16), Fla. Stat.
      “Mixture” means any physical combination of two or more substances,
including, but not limited to, a blend, an aggregation, a suspension, an
emulsion, a solution, or a dosage unit, whether or not such combination can be
separated into its components by physical means, whether mechanical or
thermal.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or
            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish control over
that substance when the substance is in a place that the person does not
control.




                                     - 52 -
      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.

                            Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

                                    Comments

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”
in § 893.03(6), Fla. Stat., includes the attempt to transfer from one person to
another. There is no crime of attempted conspiracy. Hutchinson v. State, 315 So.
2d 546 (Fla. 2d DCA 1975).

      This instruction was adopted in 1981 and amended in 1987 [509 So. 2d 917],
1989 [543 So. 2d 1205], 1997 [697 So. 2d 84], 2007 [969 So. 2d 245], 2013 [112

                 25.13 TRAFFICKING IN METHAQUALONE
                          § 893.135(1)(e), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” Methaqualone or any mixture containing methaqualone is a
controlled substance.

     To prove the crime of Trafficking in Methaqualone, the State must
prove the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
             [manufactured] [delivered ] [brought into Florida] a certain
             substance.

      2.     The substance was [methaqualone] [a mixture containing
             methaqualone].

      3.     The [methaqualone] [a mixture containing methaqualone]
             weighed 200 grams or more.


                                       - 60 -
        If applicable under the facts of the case and pursuant to § 893.135(2), Fla.
Stat., instructions on the following elements 1 and 2 should be given instead of
elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to
sell heroin but actually sold methaqualone, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below
would be given.
        1.     (Defendant) intended to [sell] [purchase] [manufacture] [deliver]
               [bring into Florida] [possess] (an enumerated controlled substance in
               § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).

      2.    The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured]
            [delivered] [brought into Florida] [possessed] methaqualone or a
            mixture containing methaqualone.

     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.

       Manufacture. § 893.02(15)(a), Fla. Stat.
       “Manufacture” means the production, preparation, propagation,
compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion, or processing of a controlled
substance, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of
natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis, or by a
combination of extraction and chemical synthesis, and includes any packaging
of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

      1. A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
         administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course of
         his or her professional practice.

      2. A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the
         practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
         research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.




                                       - 61 -
      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

      Mixture. § 893.02(16), Fla. Stat.
      “Mixture” means any physical combination of two or more substances,
including, but not limited to, a blend, an aggregation, a suspension, an
emulsion, a solution, or a dosage unit, whether or not such combination can be
separated into its components by physical means, whether mechanical or
thermal.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or
            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

                                     - 62 -
      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     Inference.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

             a.    had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
             b.    was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                   was under [his] [her] control, [or]
             c.    had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA
2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.


                                        - 63 -
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Methaqualone. (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

      Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Trafficking in
Methaqualone.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Trafficking in Methaqualone.

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Methaqualone, you
must further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond
a reasonable doubt that:

                   weighed 200 grams or more but less than 5 kilograms.

             b.    The [methaqualone][mixture containing methaqualone]
                   weighed 5 kilograms or more but less than 25 kilograms.

             c.    The [methaqualone][mixture containing methaqualone]
                   weighed 25 kilograms or more.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:


                                       - 71 -
      1.    A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her

separated into its components by physical means, whether mechanical or
thermal.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or
            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.




                                     - 72 -
      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.     had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
            b.     was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                   was under [his] [her] control, [or]
            c.     had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Flunitrazepam. (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

      Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Trafficking in
Flunitrazepam.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Trafficking in Flunitrazepam.

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Flunitrazepam, you
must further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond
a reasonable doubt that:

             a.    the [flunitrazepam] [mixture containing flunitrazepam]
                   weighed 4 grams or more but less than 14 grams.

             b.    the [flunitrazepam] [mixture containing flunitrazepam]
                   weighed 14 grams or more but less than 28 grams.

             c.    the [flunitrazepam] [mixture containing flunitrazepam]
                   weighed 28 grams or more but less than 30 kilograms.

             d.    the [flunitrazepam] [mixture containing flunitrazepam]
                   weighed 30 kilograms or more.

                            Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

      “Analog” means a structural derivative of a parent compound that is a
controlled substance.

      Mixture. § 893.02(16), Fla. Stat.
      “Mixture” means any physical combination of two or more substances,
including, but not limited to, a blend, an aggregation, a suspension, an
emulsion, a solution, or a dosage unit, whether or not such combination can be
separated into its components by physical means, whether mechanical or
thermal.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or
            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

                                     - 82 -
      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

       Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.
       “Possession” includes temporary possession for the purpose of
verification or testing, irrespective of dominion or control.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.     had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]
            b.     was within ready reach of the substance and the substance
                   was under [his] [her] control, [or]
            c.     had exclusive control of the place where the substance was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.




                                      - 83 -
      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA
2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Phenethylamines. (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

      Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled
substance knows of its illicit nature.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Trafficking in
Phenethylamines.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Trafficking in Phenethylamines.

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Phenethylamines, you
must further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond
a reasonable doubt that:

                                        - 84 -
      Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(k), Fla. Stat., to verify the weights or
amounts specified in the statute, as determined by the date of the offense. Give if
applicable up to extent of charge.
            a.     the [(specified substance)] [analog, isomer, or mixture
                   containing (specified substance(s))] weighed 10 grams or
                   more but less than 200 grams.

             b.    the [(specified substance)] [analog, isomer, or mixture
                   containing (specified substance(s))] weighed 200 grams or
                   more but less than 400 grams.

             c.    the [(specified substance)] [analog, isomer, or mixture
                   containing (specified substance(s))] weighed 400 grams or
                   more.

                             Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

                                     Comments

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”
in § 893.03(6), Fla. Stat., includes the attempt to transfer from one person to
another. There is no crime of attempted conspiracy. Hutchinson v. State, 315 So.
2d 546 (Fla. 2d DCA 1975).

      This instruction was adopted in 2016 [191 So. 3d 291] and amended in 2017.

                        25.13(e) TRAFFICKING IN LSD
                             § 893.135(1)(l), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) or any mixture containing
LSD is a controlled substance.


                                        - 85 -
      To prove the crime of Trafficking in LSD, the State must prove the
following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.    (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
            [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain
            substance.

      2.    The substance was [LSD] [a mixture containing LSD].

      3.    The [LSD] [mixture containing LSD] weighed 1 gram or more.

        If applicable under the facts of the case and pursuant to § 893.135(2), Fla.
Stat., instructions on the following elements 1 and 2 should be given instead of
elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to
sell heroin but actually sold LSD, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below would be
given.
        1.     (Defendant) intended to [sell] [purchase] [manufacture] [deliver]
               [bring into Florida] [possess] (an enumerated controlled substance in
               § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).

      2.    The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured]
            [delivered] [brought into Florida] LSD or a mixture containing
            LSD.

     Definitions. Give as applicable.
     Sell.
     “Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in
exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or
something of value.

       Manufacture. § 893.02(15)(a), Fla. Stat.
       “Manufacture” means the production, preparation, propagation,
compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion, or processing of a controlled
substance, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of
natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis, or by a
combination of extraction and chemical synthesis, and includes any packaging
of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container.

    Give if applicable.
    The term “manufacture” does not include the preparation,
compounding, packaging, or labeling of a controlled substance by:

                                       - 86 -
      1.    A practitioner or pharmacist as an incident to his or her
            administering or delivering of a controlled substance in the course
            of his or her professional practice.

      2.    A practitioner, or by his or her authorized agent under the
            practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
            research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.



      Deliver. § 893.02(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted
transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not
there is an agency relationship.

      Mixture. § 893.02(16), Fla. Stat.
      “Mixture” means any physical combination of two or more substances,
including, but not limited to, a blend, an aggregation, a suspension, an
emulsion, a solution, or a dosage unit, whether or not such combination can be
separated into its components by physical means, whether mechanical or
thermal.

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
substance and:

            a.    The substance is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    The substance is in a container in the hand of or on the
                  person, or
            c.    The substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the substance, the substance is in a place over which the person has control,
and the person has the ability to control the substance.


                                     - 87 -
      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish the power
and intention to control that substance when the substance is in a place that
the person does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a substance
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the substance was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the substance itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly
exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be
in possession of the substance.

                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

      If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a
substance was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the
presence of the substance or the power and intention to control it, in the
absence of other incriminating evidence.

substance and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in LSD. (Defendant) has raised this defense.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty of Trafficking in
LSD.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of Trafficking in LSD.

     See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).

             c.    the LSD weighed 7 grams or more.

                            Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery,
bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of
drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of
controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included
offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging
document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant
is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled
Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

      To prove the crime of Use or Possession With Intent to Use Drug
Paraphernalia, the State must prove the following two elements beyond a
reasonable doubt:

      1.     (Defendant) knew of the presence of drug paraphernalia.

      2.     (Defendant) [used the drug paraphernalia] [or] [possessed the

                  reach and is under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession of drug paraphernalia means the person is
aware of the presence of the drug paraphernalia, the drug paraphernalia is in
a place over which the person has control, and the person has the ability to
control the drug paraphernalia.

     Give if applicable.

                      § 893.147(2), Fla. Stat.

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

      1.    (Defendant) [delivered] [possessed with intent to deliver]
            [manufactured with intent to deliver] drug paraphernalia.

      2.    (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of the drug
            paraphernalia.

      3.    (Defendant) knew or reasonably should have known that the drug
            paraphernalia would be used to plant, propagate, cultivate, grow,


                                      - 96 -
            harvest, manufacture, compound, convert, produce, process,
            prepare, test, analyze, pack, repack, store, contain, conceal, inject,
            ingest, inhale or otherwise introduce a controlled substance into
            the human body.

      The Court instructs you that (name of substance) is a controlled
substance.

      Definitions.
      Possession. Give if possession with intent to deliver is charged.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.

      Actual possession.
      Actual possession of drug paraphernalia means the person is aware of
the presence of the paraphernalia and:

            a.    The drug paraphernalia is in the hand of or on the person,
                  or
            b.    The drug paraphernalia is in a container in the hand of or
                  on the person, or
            c.    The drug paraphernalia is so close as to be within ready
                  reach and is under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession of drug paraphernalia means the person is
aware of the presence of the drug paraphernalia, the drug paraphernalia is in
a place over which the person has control, and the person has the ability to
control the drug paraphernalia.

     Give if applicable.
     Mere proximity to drug paraphernalia is not sufficient to establish the
power and intention to control that drug paraphernalia when the drug
paraphernalia is in a place that the person does not control.

        Give if applicable.
        In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of drug
paraphernalia that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must
prove (defendant) (1) knew that the drug paraphernalia was within [his] [her]
presence and (2) exercised control or ownership over the drug paraphernalia
itself.

                                      - 97 -
      Joint possession.
      Possession of drug paraphernalia may be sole or joint, that is, two or
more persons may be aware of the presence of the drug paraphernalia and
may jointly exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is
considered to be in possession of the drug paraphernalia.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.    had direct physical custody of drug paraphernalia, [or]
            b.    was within ready reach of drug paraphernalia and the drug
                  paraphernalia was under [his] [her] control, [or]
            c.    had exclusive control of the place where drug paraphernalia
                  was located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the drug
paraphernalia and had the power and intention to control it.

       If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where the
drug paraphernalia was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge
of the presence of the drug paraphernalia or the power and intention to
control it, in the absence of other incriminating evidence.

       Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA
2008).
       However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
drug paraphernalia and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she]
had joint control over the place where the drug paraphernalia was located,
and the drug paraphernalia was located in a common area in plain view and
in the presence of the defendant.

possession.


                                     - 109 -
      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
object and

            a.    the object is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    the object is in a container in the hand of or on the person,
                  or
            c.    the object is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the object, the object is in a place over which the person has control, and the
person has the ability to control the object.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to an object is not sufficient to establish the power and
intention to control that object when the object is in a place that the person
does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of an object
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the object was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the object itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of an object may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons
may be aware of the presence of an object and may jointly exercise control
over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be in possession of
that object.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.    had direct physical custody of the object, [or]
            b.    was within ready reach of the object and the object was
                  under [his] [her] control, [or]


                                     - 110 -
             c.    had exclusive control of the place where the object was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

       If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where an
object was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the presence
of the object or the power and intention to control it, in the absence of other
incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
object and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the object was located, and the object was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

        Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
        Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to possession of a controlled substance. Accordingly, the defendant is
not guilty of possessing a controlled substance if [he] [she] did not know of the
illicit nature of the substance.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised management, control, or ownership
over the substance.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of possession of a controlled substance.




                                       - 111 -
       Affirmative defense of permission. Give if the defendant has satisfied his or
her burden of production. See Wright v. State, 442 So. 2d 1058 (Fla. 1st DCA
1983).
       It is a defense to the crime of Contraband in a County Detention
Facility if the defendant used regular channels and was authorized by the
sheriff or officer in charge of the detention facility to [introduce] [possess]
[give] [receive] [take] [attempt to take or send] the contraband item [into]
[from] the facility. The defendant has raised this defense.

      If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant used regular
channels and had authorization from the sheriff or officer in charge of the
detention facility, you should find [him] [her] not guilty.

       If the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did
not use regular channels or did not have authorization from the sheriff or
officer in charge of the detention facility, you should find [him] [her] guilty, if
all the elements of the charge have also been proven beyond a reasonable
doubt.

                  [COMMITMENT PROGRAM]
                       § 985.711, Fla. Stat.

       To prove the crime of Contraband in Juvenile [Detention
Facility][Commitment Program], the State must prove the following three
elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

     1.    (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of an item.

     2.    (Defendant)

           Give as applicable.
           a.    possessed an item while upon the grounds of a juvenile
                 [detention facility] [commitment program].

           b.    introduced the item into or upon the grounds of a juvenile
                 [detention facility] [commitment program].

           c.    [took] [attempted to take] [sent] [attempted to send] an item
                 from a juvenile [detention facility] [commitment program].

           d.    [transmitted] [attempted to transmit] an item to a juvenile
                 offender into or upon the grounds of a juvenile [detention
                 facility] [commitment program].

           e.    [caused] [attempted to cause] an item to be [transmitted to]
                 [received by] a juvenile offender upon the grounds of a
                 juvenile [detention facility] [commitment program].

     3.    The item was:

           Give as applicable.
           a.    an unauthorized article of [food] [clothing].

           b.    a beverage that causes or may cause an intoxicating effect.

           c.    a controlled substance. (Name of controlled substance
                 alleged) is a controlled substance.




                                   - 113 -
            d.     a prescription or nonprescription drug that has a hypnotic,
                   stimulating, or depressing effect.

            e.     a firearm.

            f.     a weapon of any kind.

            g.     an explosive substance.

      Definitions. Give as applicable.
      § 985.03(19), Fla. Stat.
      A “juvenile detention facility” is a facility used pending court
adjudication or disposition or execution of a court order for the temporary
care of a child alleged or found to have committed a violation of law.

      A “juvenile commitment program” is a facility used for the commitment
of adjudicated delinquents.

      “Introduce” means to put inside or into.

      Give if clothing is alleged. State v. Becton, 665 So. 2d 358 (Fla. 5th DCA
1995).
      “Clothing” means things worn to cover the body and limbs.

      Give if weapon is alleged. State v. Fleming, 606 So. 2d 1229 (Fla. 1st DCA
1992).
      A “weapon” is an instrument that is designed and constructed for use as
a weapon, or, if the instrument is capable of being used as a weapon, the
defendant used, threatened to use, or intended to use the instrument as a
weapon.

      Give if firearm is alleged. § 790.001(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Firearm” means any weapon (including a starter gun) which will, is
designed to, or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of
an explosive [; the frame or receiver of any such weapon] [any firearm
muffler or firearm silencer] [any destructive device] [any machine gun].

      Give if possession is alleged.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.



                                      - 114 -
      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
object and
            a.    the object is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    the object is in a container in the hand of or on the person,
                  or
            c.    the object is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the object, the object is in a place over which the person has control, and the
person has the ability to control the object.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to an object is not sufficient to establish the power and
intention to control that object when the object is in a place that the person
does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of an object
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the object was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
management, control, or ownership over the object itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of an object may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons
may be aware of the presence of an object and may jointly exercise control
over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be in possession of
that object.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.    had direct physical custody of the object, [or]
            b.    was within ready reach of the object and the object was
                  under [his] [her] control, [or]
            c.    had exclusive control of the place where the object was
                  located,

                                     - 115 -
     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

       If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where an
object was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the presence
of the object or the power and intention to control it, in the absence of other
incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
object and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the object was located, and the object was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

        Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
        Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to possession of a controlled substance. Accordingly, the defendant is
not guilty of possessing a controlled substance if [he] [she] did not know of the
illicit nature of the substance.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of possession of a controlled substance.

       Affirmative defense of permission. Give if the defendant has satisfied his or
her burden of production. See Wright v. State, 442 So. 2d 1058 (Fla. 1st DCA
1983).
       It is a defense to the crime of Contraband in Juvenile [Detention
Facility] [Commitment Program] if the defendant was authorized through

                                       - 116 -
program policy or operating procedure or had the permission of the facility
superintendent, program director, or manager of the [detention facility]
[commitment program] to [possess] [introduce] [take] [attempt to take] [send]
[attempt to send] [transmit] [attempt to transmit] [cause to transmit] [attempt
to cause to transmit] the contraband item [into] [from] the facility. The
defendant has raised this defense.

      If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant was
authorized through program policy or operating procedure or had the
permission of the facility superintendent, program director, or manager of the
[detention facility] [commitment program], you should find [him] [her] not
guilty of Contraband in a Juvenile [Detention Facility] [Commitment
Program].

      If the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did
not have authorization through program policy or operating procedure or did
not have the permission of the facility superintendent, program director, or
manager of the [detention facility] [commitment program], you should find
[him] [her] guilty, if all the elements of the charge have also been proven
beyond a reasonable doubt.

1995).
      “Clothing” means things worn to cover the body and limbs.

      Give if currency is alleged. State v. Becton, 665 So. 2d 358 (Fla. 5th DCA
1995).
      “Currency” means money or another commodity which is in circulation
as a medium of exchange.

      Give if weapon is alleged. State v. Fleming, 606 So. 2d 1229 (Fla. 1st DCA
1992).
      A “weapon” is an instrument that is designed and constructed for use as
a weapon, or, if the instrument is capable of being used as a weapon, the
defendant used, threatened to use, or intended to use the instrument as a
weapon.

      Give if firearm is alleged. § 790.001(6), Fla. Stat.
      “Firearm” means any weapon (including a starter gun) which will, is
designed to, or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of
an explosive [; the frame or receiver of any such weapon] [any firearm
muffler or firearm silencer] [any destructive device] [any machine gun].

       Give if portable communication device is alleged. § 944.47(1)(a)6, Fla. Stat.

written messages, access or store data, or connect electronically to the Internet
or any other electronic device and which allows communications in any form.
Such devices include, but are not limited to, portable two-way pagers, hand-
held radios, cellular telephones, Blackberry-type devices, personal digital
assistants or PDA’s, laptop computers, or any components of these devices
which are intended to be used to assemble such devices. The term also
includes any new technology that is developed for similar purposes. [Excluded
from this definition is any device having communication capabilities which
has been approved or issued by the department for investigative or
institutional security purposes or for conducting other state business.]

      Possession.
      There are two types of possession: actual possession and constructive
possession.



                                      - 119 -
      Actual possession.
      Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the
object and

            a.    the object is in the hand of or on the person, or
            b.    the object is in a container in the hand of or on the person,
                  or
            c.    the object is so close as to be within ready reach and is
                  under the control of the person.

      Constructive possession.
      Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of
the object, the object is in a place over which the person has control, and the
person has the ability to control the object.

      Give if applicable.
      Mere proximity to an object is not sufficient to establish the power and
intention to control that object when the object is in a place that the person
does not control.

      Give if applicable.
      In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of an object
that was in a place [he] [she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant)
(1) knew that the object was within [his] [her] presence and (2) exercised
control or ownership over the object itself.

      Joint possession.
      Possession of an object may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons
may be aware of the presence of an object and may jointly exercise control
over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be in possession of
that object.

     Inferences.
     Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So. 3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012);
Meme v. State, 72 So. 3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).
     If you find that (defendant):

            a.    had direct physical custody of the object, [or]
            b.    was within ready reach of the object and the object was
                  under [his] [her] control, [or]


                                     - 120 -
             c.    had exclusive control of the place where the object was
                   located,

     you may infer that [he] [she] was aware of the presence of the substance
and had the power and intention to control it.

       If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where an
object was located, you may not infer [he] [she] had knowledge of the presence
of the object or the power and intention to control it, in the absence of other
incriminating evidence.

      Give if applicable. Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).
      However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the
object and had the power and intention to control it if [he] [she] had joint
control over the place where the object was located, and the object was
located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
there is evidence that the defendant 1) did not know of the presence of the
substance or 2) knew of the presence of the substance, but did not know of its illicit
nature. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to the crime of Possession of a Controlled Substance. Accordingly, the
defendant is not guilty of possessing a controlled substance if [he] [she] did not
know of the illicit nature of the substance.

      You are permitted to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit
nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the
presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the
substance.

       If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew
of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the
charge have been proved, you should find [him] [her] guilty.

      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)
knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him]
[her] not guilty of possession of a controlled substance.




                                       - 121 -
      Affirmative defense: Authorization. Give if the defendant has satisfied his or
her burden of production. See Wright v. State, 442 So. 2d 1058 (Fla. 1st DCA
1983).
      It is a defense to the crime of Possession of Contraband [In] [Upon the
Grounds of] a State Correctional Facility if the defendant was authorized by
the officer in charge of the correctional institution to possess the item [in]
[upon the grounds of] a state correctional institution. The defendant has
raised this defense.

      If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant had
authorization from the officer in charge of the correctional institution, you
should find [him] [her] not guilty.

       If the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did
not have authorization from the officer in charge of the correctional
institution, you should find [him] [her] guilty, if all the elements of the charge
have also been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
