   IN RE: STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES—
                       REPORT 2018-12.

                                   May 30, 2019

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.

      On November 8, 2018, the Committee filed a report proposing amendments

to the following existing instructions: 3.6(m) (Affirmative Defense: Temporary

Possession of Controlled Substance for Legal Disposal); 3.6(n) (Affirmative

Defense: Controlled Substance Was Lawfully Obtained from a Practitioner or

Pursuant to a Valid Prescription); 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); 25.8 (Obtaining a Controlled

Substance by Fraud, etc.); 25.14 (Use or Possession with Intent to Use Drug

Paraphernalia); 25.15 (Delivery, Possession with Intent to Deliver, or Manufacture

with Intent to Deliver Drug Paraphernalia); 25.17 (Contraband in County

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

[Commitment Program]); 25.19 (Unlawful Sale, Manufacture, Alteration,

Delivery, Uttering or Possession of Counterfeit-Resistant Prescription Blanks for

Controlled Substances); 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 also

proposes deleting instructions 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


                                        -2-
Phenethylamines (Includes MDMA)), and 25.13(e) (Trafficking in LSD). In

addition, a new instruction, 25.7(a) (Trafficking in (Name of Controlled

Substance)), is proposed. The proposals were published in The Florida Bar News;

the Committee did not receive any comments.

      We authorize the proposed amendments to the instructions for publication

and use as proposed with certain modifications, and discuss the more significant

amendments to the instructions.

      First, to the extent that the instructions address the concept of “possession,”

they include the new format as previously authorized by the Court. See, e.g., In re

Std. Jury Instrs. in Criminal Cases—Report 2018-10, 259 So. 3d 765, 766 (Fla.

2018); In re Std. Jury Instrs. in Criminal Cases—Report 2018-08, 259 So. 3d 754,

756 (Fla. 2018); In re Std. Jury Instrs. in Criminal Cases—Report 2017-03, 238

So. 3d 182 (Fla. 2018).

      Next, the instructions that include the affirmative defense inference

pertaining to lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance, see

sections 893.101(2) and 893.101(3), Florida Statutes (2018), are revised consistent

with the language previously authorized in instruction 25.7 (Possession of a

Controlled Substance). See In re Std. Jury Instrs. in Criminal Cases—Report

2017-03, 238 So. 3d at 191.




                                         -3-
      On the Court’s own motion, we amend the table of lesser-included offenses

for instructions 25.17, 25.18, and 25.21 to reflect that possession of a controlled

substance is not necessarily a category one lesser-included offense of contraband in

either a county detention facility, a juvenile detention facility or commitment

program, or a state correctional institution, respectively.

      Lastly, instructions 25.9, 25.10, 25.11, 25.11(a), 25.11(b), 25.12, 25.13,

25.13(a), 25.13(b), 25.13(c), 25.13(d), and 25.13(e), which individually pertain to

trafficking of a specifically named controlled substance, are hereby deleted. In

their place, new instruction 25.7(a) is authorized, which provides for the insertion

of the name of the particular drug charged.

      Having considered the Committee’s report, we authorize the new and

amended instructions as set forth in the appendix to this opinion for publication

and use. 1 In addition, instructions 25.9, 25.10, 25.11, 25.11(a), 25.11(b), 25.12,

25.13, 25.13(a), 25.13(b), 25.13(c), 25.13(d), and 25.13(e) are deleted. New

language is indicated by underlining, and deleted language is indicated by struck-

through type. We caution all interested parties that any comments associated with


       1. 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.

                                         -4-
the instructions reflect only the opinion of the Committee and are not necessarily

indicative of the views of this Court as to their correctness or applicability. In

authorizing the publication and use of these instructions, we express no opinion on

their correctness and remind all interested parties that this authorization forecloses

neither requesting additional or alternative instructions nor contesting the legal

correctness of the instructions. The instructions as set forth in the appendix shall

become effective when this opinion becomes final.

      It is so ordered.

CANADY, C.J., and POLSTON, LABARGA, LAWSON, LAGOA, LUCK, and

  3.6(m) AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE: TEMPORARY POSSESSION OF A
         CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE FOR LEGAL DISPOSAL

       It is a defense to the charge of [possession of a controlled substance]
[trafficking via possession] for a person to briefly possess a controlled
substance for the sole purpose of legal disposal. In order to find the defendant
briefly possessed a controlled substance for the sole purpose of legal disposal,
you must find all of the following:

      1.    (Defendant) possessed the controlled substance.

      2.    (Defendant) acquired the controlled substance without unlawful
            intent.

      3.    The possession of the controlled substance was brief and
            (defendant) sought to dispose of the controlled substance without
            delay.

      4.    The temporary possession was solely for the purpose of legal
            disposal.

      Definitions.
      “Legal disposal” means to destroy or throw away the controlled
substance or to turn in the controlled substance to a law enforcement officer.

       To “possess a substance” means the defendant a) knew of the existence
of the substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.
      Joint possession. Give if applicable.

                                        -6-
     Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may possess a substance.
      This defense does not apply if (defendant) disposed of or surrendered a
controlled substance because [he] [she] believed a law enforcement officer had
discovered, or would have imminently discovered that [he] [she] was in
possession of a controlled substance.

       There is no statute for the defense of “legal disposal” and, as of October
2018, the case law is silent as to (1) which party bears the burden of persuasion of
the affirmative defense and (2) the standard for the burden of persuasion. Under
the common law, defendants had both the burden of production and the burden of
persuasion on an affirmative defense by a preponderance of the evidence.
       The Florida Supreme Court has often decided, however, that once a
defendant meets the burden of production on an affirmative defense, the burden of
persuasion is on the State to disprove the affirmative defense beyond a reasonable
doubt (e.g., self-defense and consent to enter in a burglary prosecution). In the
absence of case law, trial judges must resolve the issue via a special instruction.
See the opinion in Dixon v. United States, 548 U.S. 1 (2006), for further guidance.

       If burden of persuasion is on the defendant:
        If you find that defendant proved (insert appropriate burden of
persuasion) that [he] [she] temporarily possessed the controlled substance
solely for legal disposal, you should find [him] [her] not guilty. If the
defendant did not prove (insert appropriate burden of persuasion) that [he] [she]
temporarily possessed the controlled substance solely for legal disposal, you
should find [him] [her] guilty if all the elements of the charge have been
proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

       If burden of persuasion is on the State:
        If you find that the State proved (insert appropriate burden of
persuasion) that the defendant did not temporarily possess the controlled
substance solely for legal disposal, you should find [him] [her] guilty, if all of
the elements of the charge have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
However, if you are not convinced (insert appropriate burden of persuasion)
that the defendant did not temporarily possess the controlled substance solely
for legal disposal, you should find [him] [her] not guilty.

                                    Comments



                                        -7-
       See Ramsubhag v. State, 937 So. 2d 1192 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006) and Stanton
v. State, 746 So. 2d 1229 (Fla. 3d DCA 1999) for discussion on this topic.

      This instruction was adopted in 2013 [141 So. 3d 132] and amended in 2019.


     3.6(n) AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE: CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE
      WAS LAWFULLY OBTAINED FROM A PRACTITIONER OR
               PURSUANT TO A VALID PRESCRIPTION
                  §§ 499.03(1), 893.13(6)(a) Fla. Stats.

       It is a defense to the charge of [possession] [trafficking via possession]
for a person to possess a controlled substance which [he] [she] lawfully
obtained from a practitioner or pursuant to a valid prescription or order of a
practitioner while acting in the course of his or her professional practice.

       Like all affirmative defenses and pursuant to § 893.10(1), Fla. Stat., the
burden of going forward with evidence of the “controlled substance was lawfully
obtained” defense is upon the defendant. Fla. Stats. 893.10(1), 893.13(6)(a), and
499.03(1) are silent, however, as to the burden of persuasion for the affirmative
defense. There is no case law, as of October 2018, as to (1) which party bears the
burden of persuasion of the affirmative defense and (2) the standard for the burden
of persuasion. Under the common law, defendants had both the burden of
production and the burden of persuasion on an affirmative defense by a
preponderance of the evidence.
       The Florida Supreme Court has often decided, however, that once a
defendant meets the burden of production on an affirmative defense, the burden of
persuasion is on the State to disprove the affirmative defense beyond a reasonable
doubt (e.g., self-defense and consent to enter in a burglary prosecution). In the
absence of case law, trial judges must resolve the issue via a special instruction.
See the opinion in Dixon v. United States, 548 U.S. 1 (2006), for further guidance.

      For example, if the burden to prove the affirmative defense is on the
defendant under the preponderance of the evidence standard.
      If you find the defendant proved by a preponderance of the evidence
that [he] [she] lawfully obtained the controlled substance from a practitioner
or pursuant to a valid prescription or order of a practitioner while acting in
the course of his or her professional practice, you should find [him] [her] not
guilty of [possession of a controlled substance] [trafficking via possession]. If
the defendant did not prove by a preponderance of the evidence that [he] [she]

                                       -8-
lawfully obtained the controlled substance from a practitioner or pursuant to
a valid prescription or order of a practitioner while acting in the course of his
or her professional practice, you should find [him] [her] guilty, if all the
elements of the charge have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

      Or, if the burden of disproving the affirmative defense is on the State under
the beyond a reasonable doubt standard.
      If you find that the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the
defendant did not lawfully obtain the controlled substance from a practitioner
or pursuant to a valid prescription or order of a practitioner while acting in
the course of his or her professional practice, you should find [him] [her]
guilty, if all of the elements of the charge have also been proven beyond a
reasonable doubt. However, if you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the
defendant lawfully obtained the controlled substance from a practitioner or
pursuant to a valid prescription or order of a practitioner while acting in the
course of his or her professional practice, you should find [him] [her] not
guilty of [possession of a controlled substance] [trafficking via possession].

       Definitions.
       To “possess a substance” means the defendant a) knew of the existence
of the substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may possess a substance.
      § 893.02(2123), Fla. Stat.
      “Practitioner” means a physician licensed pursuant to chapter 458, a
dentist licensed pursuant to chapter 466, a veterinarian licensed pursuant to
chapter 474, an osteopathic physician licensed pursuant to chapter 459, an
advanced registered nurse practitioner certified under chapter 464, a
naturopath licensed pursuant to chapter 462, a certified optometrist licensed

                                       -9-
under chapter 463, a psychiatric nurse who has an advanced registered nurse
practitioner certified under § 464.012, Fla. Stat., and who has a master’s or
doctoral degree in psychiatric nursing, holds a national advanced practice
certification as a psychiatric mental health advanced practice nurse, and has 2
years of post-master’s clinical experience under the supervision of a physician,
or a podiatric physician licensed pursuant to chapter 461, or a physician
assistant licensed under chapter 458 or chapter 459, provided such
practitioner holds a valid federal controlled substance registry number.

        § 893.02(2224), Fla. Stat.
        “Prescription” means and includes an order for drugs or medicinal
supplies written, signed, or transmitted by word of mouth, telephone,
telegram, or other means of communication by a duly licensed practitioner
licensed by the laws of the state to prescribe such drugs or medicinal supplies,
issued in good faith and in the course of professional practice, intended to be
filled, compounded, or dispensed by another person licensed by the laws of the
state to do so. The term also includes an order for drugs or medicinal supplies
so transmitted or written by a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or other
practitioner licensed to practice in a state other than Florida if the pharmacist
called upon to fill the order determines, in the exercise of his or her
professional judgment, that the order was issued pursuant to a valid patient-
physician relationship, that it is authentic, and that the drugs or medicinal
supplies ordered are considered necessary for the continuation of treatment of
a chronic or recurrent illness.“Prescription” includes any order for drugs or
medicinal supplies which is written or transmitted by any means of
communication by a licensed practitioner authorized by the laws of this state
to prescribe such drugs or medicinal supplies, is issued in good faith and in
the course of professional practice, is intended to be dispensed by a person
authorized by the laws of this state to do so, and meets the requirements of
§ 893.04, Fla. Stat. (If there is a dispute about whether the requirements were met,
the judge should insert those requirements or the requirement(s) in dispute.)

      [The term also includes an order for drugs or medicinal supplies
transmitted or written by a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or other
practitioner licensed to practice in a state other than Florida, but only if the
pharmacist called upon to fill such an order determines, in the exercise of his
or her professional judgment, that the order was issued pursuant to a valid
patient-physician relationship, that it is authentic, and that the drugs or
medicinal supplies ordered are considered necessary for the continuation of
treatment of a chronic or recurrent illness.]

                                    Comments

      A special instruction is necessary where there is evidence that the defendant
acted as an agent for the person who had a prescription. See McCoy v. State, 56 So.
3d 37 (Fla. 1st DCA 2010).

      It is undecided whether a defendant may rely on the prescription defense
when he or she is charged with Possession With Intent. See Celeste v. State, 79 So.
3d 898 (Fla. 5th DCA 2012); Ayotte v. State, 67 So. 3d 330 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011);
and Wagner v. State, 88 So. 3d 250 (Fla. 4th DCA 2012).

       See Knipp v. State, 67 So. 3d 376 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011) regarding the
availability of the prescription defense for a person who obtained the prescription
in violation of the doctor shopping statute.

      This instruction was adopted in 2013 [141 So. 3d 132] and amended in 2019.


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



                                       - 11 -
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; and 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.


                                         - 12 -
      “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.
      Give if applicable. § 893.02(19), Fla. Stat.


                                       - 13 -
       “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

      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.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed a substance,” the State must prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.

      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a

      You are permittedmay but are not required to infer that (defendant) was
aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she]

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).

       *The crime of Possession of a Controlled Substance is not a necessarily
lesser-included crime of Manufacture of a Controlled Substance. Anderson v. State,
447 So. 2d 236 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983). Also, Possession of a Controlled Substance is
not a necessary lesser-included offense of Sale of a Controlled Substance. State v.
McCloud, 577 So. 2d 939 (Fla. 1991). It is unclear if the courts will determine that
a person charged with Purchase or Delivery of a Controlled Substance is
necessarily charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance.
      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.
       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.

      Starting in 2014, the lLegislature passed laws pertaining to “medical
cannabis” or “low-THC cannabis,” which is excluded from the definition of

 § 893.13(1)(b), Fla. Stat.; § 893.13(2)(b), Fla. Stat.; and § 893.13(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 threefour elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
      1.     (Defendant) [sold] [purchased] [delivered] [or] [possessed] a
             certain substance that weighed more than 10 grams[a certain
             substance] [a mixture] [a combination of substances].


      2.     The [substance] [mixture] [combination of substances]
             wascontained (specific substance alleged).
      3.     The [substance] [mixture] [combination of substances] weighed
             more than 10 grams.
      34.    (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of the substance.

      Sell.




                                         - 17 -
     “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.
      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)


                                     - 18 -
(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.
      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.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed a substance,” the State must prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.

      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may possess a substance.
       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to (crime charged). You are permitted may but are not required to
infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the controlled
substance if you find that [he] [she] knew of the presence ofpossessed 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 permittedmay but are not required 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).

                       § 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.
      2.    The [sale] [manufacture] [delivery] [possession with intent to [sell]
            [manufacture] [deliver]] took place in, on, or within 1,000 feet of:
            [the real property comprising a child care facility];
            [the real property comprising a public or private [elementary]
            [middle] [secondary] school between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and
            12:00 midnight];
            [the real property comprising [a state, county, or municipal park]
            [a community center] [a publicly-owned recreational facility];
            [the real property comprising a public or private college,
            university, or other postsecondary educational institution];

            [the real property comprising an assisted living facility].
      3.    The substance was (specific substance alleged).
      4.    (Defendant) had knowledge of the presence of the substance.
      Definitions. Give as applicable.
      Sell.




                                         - 26 -
     “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.

      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


                                     - 27 -
            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.
     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.




                                      - 28 -
      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.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed a substance,” the State must prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may possess a substance.
      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
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


                                      - 29 -
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.
§ 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to (crime charged). You are permittedmay but are not required to infer
that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if
you find that [he] [she] knew of the presence ofpossessed 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 permittedmay but are not required 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).

       *The crime of Possession of a Controlled Substance is not a necessarily
lesser-included crime of Manufacture of a Controlled Substance. Anderson v. State,
447 So. 2d 236 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983). Also, Possession of a Controlled Substance is
not a necessary lesser-included offense of Sale of a Controlled Substance. State v.
McCloud, 577 So. 2d 939 (Fla. 1991). It is unclear if the courts will determine that
a person charged with Purchase or Delivery of a Controlled Substance is
necessarily charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance.
      Starting in 2014, the lLegislature passed laws pertaining to “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), 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

    25.7(a) TRAFFICKING IN (NAME OF CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE)
                       § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.

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

      To prove the crime of Trafficking in (name of controlled substance), the
State must prove the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.    (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
            [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a substance.
      2.    The substance was [(name of controlled substance)] [a mixture
            containing (name of controlled substance)].
      3.    The [(name of controlled substance)] [mixture containing (name of
            controlled substance)] weighed [(insert weight alleged)].

        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 cocaine, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below would
be given.
        1.     (Defendant) intended to [possess] [sell] [purchase] [manufacture]
               [deliver] [bring into Florida] (a controlled substance enumerated in
               § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).
      2.    The defendant actually [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
            [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] (a controlled
            substance enumerated in § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.).
     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

                                       - 32 -
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.
      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.
      To prove (defendant) knowingly possessed a substance, the State must
prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.

      Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in (name of controlled substance). You may but are not
required to infer that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the
controlled substance if you find that [he] [she] possessed the controlled
substance.

      Give if applicable. McMillon v. State, 813 So. 2d 56 (Fla. 2002).
      You may but are not required 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
(name of 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 Trafficking in (name of controlled substance).

      State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in (name of controlled
substance), you must further determine by your verdict whether the State has
further proved beyond a reasonable doubt that:
       § 893.135(1) Fla. Stat. contains differing weights and associated penalties
for various controlled substances. Give if applicable, as determined by the date of
the offense, up to the weight charged.
              a.     the [(name of controlled substance)] [mixture containing
                     (name of controlled substance)] weighed [(insert weight)] but
                     less than [(insert weight)].
             b.    the [(name of controlled substance)] [mixture containing
                   (name of controlled substance)] weighed [(insert weight)] but
                   less than [(insert weight)].



                                       - 34 -
             c.    the [(name of controlled substance)] [mixture containing
                   (name of controlled substance)] weighed [(insert weight)] but
                   less than [(insert weight)].


                            Lesser Included Offenses

       Trafficking can be committed by possession, sale, purchase, manufacture,
delivery, or by bringing into this state a certain amount of drugs. 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 because of State v. McCloud, 577 So. 2d 939
(Fla. 1991)(holding that possession of cocaine is not a lesser-included offense of
sale of cocaine). Also, 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.


                                    Comments

        One way to commit Trafficking in Cannabis is to knowingly possess, sell,
purchase, manufacture, deliver, or bring into the state 300 or more cannabis plants.
Also, the trafficking statute for some of the controlled substances include not only
the controlled substance or a mixture containing that controlled substance, but also
a salt, derivative, isomer, salt of an isomer, analog, substituted controlled
substance, ester, ether, salt of an ester, or salt of an ether of that controlled
substance. A special instruction is needed in those cases.
      There is no crime of attempted conspiracy. Hutchinson v. State, 315 So. 2d
546 (Fla. 2d DCA 1975).
      This instruction was adopted in 2019.


   25.8 OBTAINING A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE BY FRAUD, ETC.
                     § 893.13(7)(a)9., 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 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
             obtain] possession of a certain substance.
      2.     The substance was (specific substance alleged).

             obtain] the substance by [misrepresentation] [fraud] [forgery]
             [deception] [subterfuge].
      Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 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
[Misrepresentation] [Fraud] [Forgery] [Deception] [Subterfuge].
      You are permittedmay but are not required 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[he] [she] possessed the
controlled substance. Read explanation of actual and/or constructive possession,
as applicable.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed a substance,” the State must prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may possess a substance.

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]
[Subterfuge].
      If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant)

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

                    25.9 TRAFFICKING IN CANNABIS
                           § 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:

                                       - 37 -
      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.
      Definitions. Give as applicable.
      Cannabis. § 893.02(3), Fla. Stat.
      See Comment section for medical marijuana.
      “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.



                                       - 38 -
    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.
      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.



                                     - 39 -
      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.
     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. §
893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.


                                       - 40 -
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Cannabis. 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.
      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


                                        - 41 -
       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).
      Starting in 2014, the legislature passed laws pertaining to “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), 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 1987 [509 So. 2d 917],
1989 [543 So. 2d 1205], 1997 [697 So. 2d 84], 2007 [969 So. 2d 245], 2013 [112
So. 3d 1211], 2014 [153 So. 3d 192], 2016 [191 So. 3d 291], and 2017.

      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:




                                       - 42 -
      1.    (Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased]
            [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain

      3.    The [cocaine] [mixture containing cocaine] weighed 28 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 cocaine, 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] cocaine or a mixture
            containing cocaine.
     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.

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:




                                       - 43 -
      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.

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.

             § 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 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
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]

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:




                                       - 48 -
      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.
      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.


                                     - 49 -
      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.
     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. §
893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in (Substance Alleged).
      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
(Substance Alleged).
      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 (Substance Alleged).
      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in (Specific Substance
alleged), you must further determine by your verdict whether the State has
proved beyond a reasonable doubt that:

                              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.

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 [hydrocodone] [a mixture containing
            [hydrocodone].
      3.    The [hydrocodone] [mixture containing hydrocodone] weighed 14
            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 hydrocodone, 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] hydrocodone or a
            mixture containing hydrocodone.

      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.

      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.

      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

      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. §
893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Oxycodone. 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
Oxycodone.
      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 Oxycodone.
      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Oxycodone, you must

                            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.


                  25.12 TRAFFICKING IN PHENCYCLIDINE
                           § 893.135(1)(d), Fla. Stat.

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

     To prove the crime of Trafficking in Phencyclidine, 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 [phencyclidine] [a mixture containing
             phencyclidine].


                                       - 62 -
      3.    The [phencyclidine] [mixture containing phencyclidine] weighed
            28 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 phencyclidine, 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] phencyclidine or a
            mixture containing phencyclidine.

     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
            practitioner’s supervision, for the purpose of, or as an incident to,
            research, teaching, or chemical analysis, and not for sale.

                                       - 63 -
      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)


                                     - 64 -
(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.

     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. §
893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.

       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in Phencyclidine. You are permitted to presume 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
Phencyclidine.
      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 Phencyclidine.

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Phencyclidine, you
must further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond
a reasonable doubt that:
      Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(d)1.a.–c., 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 [phencyclidine] [mixture containing phencyclidine]
                    weighed 28 grams or more but less than 200 grams.]
             b.     [The [phencyclidine] [mixture containing phencyclidine]
                    weighed 200 grams or more but less than 400 grams.]
             c.     [The [phencyclidine] [mixture containing phencyclidine]
                    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


                                        - 66 -
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

                             § 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.

              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


                                       - 67 -
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:

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.

      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.

     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 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 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.




                                      - 70 -
       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:
             Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(e)1.a.–c., 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 [methaqualone][mixture containing methaqualone]
                    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.

                                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

25.13(a) TRAFFICKING IN [AMPHETAMINE] [METHAMPHETAMINE]
                     § 893.135(1)(f), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” [Amphetamine] [Methamphetamine] [or a mixture containing
[Amphetamine] [Methamphetamine] [Phenylacetone, Phenylacetic Acid,
Pseudoephedrine, or Ephedrine in conjunction with other chemicals and
equipment utilized in the manufacture of Amphetamine or
Methamphetamine]] is a controlled substance.
     To prove the crime of Trafficking in [Amphetamine]
[Methamphetamine], 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 [amphetamine] [methamphetamine] [a
             mixture containing [amphetamine] [methamphetamine]
             [(specified substance) in conjunction with other chemicals and
             equipment utilized in the manufacture of Amphetamine or
             Methamphetamine]].
      3.     The [amphetamine] [methamphetamine] [a mixture containing
             (specified substance)] weighed 14 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 methamphetamine, instructions on elements 1 and 2
below would be given.




                                       - 72 -
     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] methamphetamine
           or a mixture containing methamphetamine.

     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
           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.


                                         - 73 -
      “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.

     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



                                     - 74 -
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.
      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. §
893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in [Amphetamine] [Methamphetamine].
      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.

                                       - 75 -
      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
[Amphetamine] [Methamphetamine].
      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 [Amphetamine] [Methamphetamine].

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

      Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(f), 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 [amphetamine] [methamphetamine] [a mixture
                   containing (specified substance)] weighed 14 grams or more
                   but less than 28 grams.
             b.    the [amphetamine] [methamphetamine] [a mixture
                   containing (specified substance)] weighed 28 grams or more
                   but less than 200 grams.
             c.    the [amphetamine] [methamphetamine] [a mixture
                   containing (specified substance)] weighed 200 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

                                       - 76 -
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.

               25.13(b) TRAFFICKING IN FLUNITRAZEPAM
                          § 893.135(1)(g), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” Flunitrazepam or a mixture containing flunitrazepam is a
controlled substance.
     To prove the crime of Trafficking in Flunitrazepam, 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 [flunitrazepam] [a mixture containing
            flunitrazepam].
      3.    The [flunitrazepam] [a mixture containing flunitrazepam]
            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
elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to
sell heroin but actually sold flunitrazepam, 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.).


                                       - 77 -
      2.    The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured]
            [delivered] [brought into Florida] [possessed] flunitrazepam or a
            mixture containing flunitrazepam.

     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.

            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

            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

     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

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.

893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
      Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a

       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.

                  § 893.135(1)(h), (1)(i), and (1)(j), Fla. Stat.

      Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled
substances.” [Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB)] [Gamma-butyrolactone
(GBL)] [1,4-Butanediol] [or any mixture containing [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-

      Possession.


                                     - 83 -
      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.

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

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. §
893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to Trafficking in [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol]. 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
[GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol].


                                        - 85 -
      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 [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol].

      See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
      If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-
Butanediol], you must further determine by your verdict whether the State
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt that:

             a.     the [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol] [mixture containing
                    [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol]] weighed 1 kilogram or
                    more but less than 5 kilograms.
             b.    the [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol] [mixture containing
                   [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol]] weighed 5 kilograms or
                   more but less than 10 kilograms.
             c.    the [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol] [mixture containing
                   [GHB] [GBL] [1,4-Butanediol]] weighed 10 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.

                                     Comments

       There is no crime of Attempted Delivery because the definition of “delivery”

      3.    The [(specified substance)] [analog, isomer, or mixture containing
            (specified substance(s))] weighed 10 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 MDMA, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below would
be given.

      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):

                                      - 94 -
             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. §
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. 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
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.


                                       - 95 -
     See State v. Weller, 590 So. 2d 923 (Fla. 1991).
     If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in LSD, you must further
determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond a reasonable
doubt that:
      Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(1)(l)1., 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 LSD weighed 1 gram or more but less than 5 grams.
             b.    the LSD weighed 5 grams or more but less than 7 grams.
             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.

                                    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).

                                       - 96 -
      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
            drug paraphernalia with intent to use it] to:
            [plant] [propagate] [cultivate] [grow] [harvest] [manufacture]
            [compound] [convert] [produce] [process] [prepare] [test]
            [analyze] [pack] [repack] [store] [contain] [conceal] a controlled
            substance;
            or
            [inject] [ingest] [inhale] [or] [introduce] a controlled substance
            into the human body.
      The Court instructs you that (name of substance) is a controlled
substance.

      Definitions.
      Possession.
      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 drug 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


                                     - 97 -
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.

      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 the drug paraphernalia, [or]
            b.   was within ready reach of the drug paraphernalia and the
                 drug paraphernalia was under [his] [her] control, [or]
          c.     had exclusive control of the place where the 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 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. Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).


                                      - 98 -
       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.
       To prove (defendant) “possessed drug paraphernalia,” the State must
prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
drug paraphernalia and b) intentionally exercised control over that drug
paraphernalia.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over drug paraphernalia whether the drug
paraphernalia is carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely
separate location. Mere proximity to drug paraphernalia does not establish
that the person intentionally exercised control over the drug paraphernalia in
the absence of additional evidence. Control can be established by proof that
(defendant) had direct personal power to control the drug paraphernalia or
the present ability to direct its control by another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of drug paraphernalia may be sole or joint, that is, two or
more persons may possess drug paraphernalia.
      Drug Paraphernalia. § 893.145, Fla. Stat.
      The term “drug paraphernalia” means all equipment, products, and
materials of any kind which are used, intended for use, or designed for use in
planting, propagating, cultivating, growing, harvesting, manufacturing,
compounding, converting, producing, processing, preparing, testing,
analyzing, packaging, repackaging, storing, containing, concealing,
transporting, injecting, ingesting, inhaling, or otherwise introducing into the
human body a controlled substance or a substance listed in § 877.111, Florida
Statutes]. The Court instructs you that (name of substance) is a substance listed
in § 877.111, Florida Statutes.

      It includes, but is not limited to:

      for use, or designed for use in packaging small quantities of
      controlled substances.
10.   Containers and other objects used, intended for use, or designed
      for use in storing or concealing controlled substances.
11.   Hypodermic syringes, needles, and other objects used, intended
      for use, or designed for use in parenterally injecting controlled
      substances into the human body.
12.   Objects used, intended for use, or designed for use in ingesting,
      inhaling, or otherwise introducing controlled substances or a

shall be considered in determining whether an object is drug paraphernalia:
      1.    Statements by an owner or by anyone in control of the object
            concerning its use.
      2.    The proximity of the object, in time and space, to a direct
            violation of the drug laws.
      3.    The proximity of the object to controlled substances.



                                       - 101 -

         object, to deliver it to persons whom [he] [she] knows, or should
         reasonably know, intend to use the object to facilitate a violation
         of the drug laws. The innocence of an owner, or of anyone in
         control of the object, as to a direct violation of the drug laws shall
         not prevent a finding that the object is intended for use, or
         designed for use, as drug paraphernalia.

         legitimate supplier of like or related items to the community, such
         as a licensed distributor or dealer of tobacco products.
   11.   Evidence of the ratio of sales of the object or objects to the total
         sales of the business enterprise.
   12.   The existence and scope of legitimate uses for the object in the
         community.

                      § 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,
            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


                                     - 103 -
            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.

      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.

     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,



                                    - 104 -
     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.
       To prove (defendant) “possessed drug paraphernalia,” the State must
prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
drug paraphernalia and b) intentionally exercised control over that drug
paraphernalia.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over drug paraphernalia whether the drug
paraphernalia is carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely
separate location. Mere proximity to drug paraphernalia does not establish
that the person intentionally exercised control over the drug paraphernalia in
the absence of additional evidence. Control can be established by proof that
(defendant) had direct personal power to control the drug paraphernalia or
the present ability to direct its control by another.

     Possession of drug paraphernalia may be sole or joint, that is, two or
more persons may possess drug paraphernalia.
      Drug Paraphernalia. § 893.145, Fla. Stat.
      The term “drug paraphernalia” means all equipment, products, and
materials of any kind which are used, intended for use, or designed for use in
planting, propagating, cultivating, growing, harvesting, manufacturing,
compounding, converting, producing, processing, preparing, testing,
analyzing, packaging, repackaging, storing, containing, concealing,

      as a licensed distributor or dealer of tobacco products.
11.   Evidence of the ratio of sales of the object or objects to the total
      sales of the business enterprise.

                                      - 111 -
      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

      Give if tobacco product is alleged. § 210.25(11), Fla. Stat.
      “Tobacco products” means loose tobacco suitable for smoking; snuff;

possession.


                                      - 112 -
      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]


                                     - 113 -
             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.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed an item,” the State must prove beyond
a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the item and b)
intentionally exercised control over that item.
       Give if applicable.
       Control can be exercised over an item whether the item is carried on a
person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere proximity to
an item does not establish that the person intentionally exercised control over
the item in the absence of additional evidence. Control can be established by
proof that (defendant) had direct personal power to control the item or the
present ability to direct its control by another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of an item may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons
may possess an item.
        Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 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 permittedmay but are not required to infer that (defendant) was
aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he] [she]


                                       - 114 -
knew of the presence ofpossessed the controlled 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.

       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.

                                      - 117 -
     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]. [A
destructive device is (insert definition in § 790.001(4), Fla. Stat.).] [A “machine
gun” is (insert definition in § 790.001(9), Fla. Stat.).]

      Give if possession is alleged.
      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
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)


                                      - 118 -
(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,
     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.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed an item,” the State must prove beyond
a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the item and b)
intentionally exercised control over that item.
       Give if applicable.
       Control can be exercised over an item whether the item is carried on a
person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere proximity to
an item does not establish that the person intentionally exercised control over
the item in the absence of additional evidence. Control can be established by

                                     - 119 -
proof that (defendant) had direct personal power to control the item or the
present ability to direct its control by another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of an item may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons
may possess an item.
        Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 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 permittedmay but are not required 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
possessed the controlled 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
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

                                       - 120 -
[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.

                                § 831.311, Fla. Stat.

      To prove the crime of Unlawful Sale, Manufacture, Alteration, Delivery,
Uttering or Possession of Counterfeit-Resistant Prescription Blanks for
Controlled Substances, the State must prove the following three elements
beyond a reasonable doubt:

      1.    (Defendant) [sold] [manufactured] [altered] [delivered] [uttered]
            [possessed] any counterfeit-resistant prescription blanks for
            controlled substances.

      2.    The counterfeit-resistant prescription blanks for controlled
            substances were in the form and content established by the
            Department of Health pursuant to law.

      3.    (Defendant) intended [to injure or defraud any person] [to
            facilitate (insert the alleged violation of s.§ 893.13, Fla. Stat. as
            charged in the Information)].

      Definitions. Give as applicable.
      To “utter” means to pass, present or publish.

      Possession.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed counterfeit-resistant prescription
blanks for controlled substances,” the State must prove beyond a reasonable
doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the prescription blanks and b)
intentionally exercised control over them.

      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over prescription blanks whether they are
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to prescription blanks does not establish that the person
intentionally exercised control over them in the absence of additional
evidence. Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct
personal power to control the prescription blanks or the present ability to
direct their control by another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of prescription blanks may be sole or joint, that is, two or
more persons may possess prescription blanks.

25.20 POSSESSION OF CONTRABAND [IN] [UPON THE GROUNDS OF]
             A STATE CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION
                      § 944.47(1)(c) Fla. Stat.

      To prove the crime of Possession of Contraband [In] [Upon the
Grounds of] a State Correctional Facility, the State must prove the following
two elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
      1.     (Defendant) possessed
             Give as applicable.

                   [intended to be given or transmitted] to an inmate of a state
                   correctional institution.



                                       - 123 -
            b.     [an intoxicating beverage] [a beverage which causes or may

            c.     a controlled substance. (Name of controlled substance) is a
                   controlled substance.
            d.     any prescription or non-prescription drug having a

            e.     [a firearm] [a weapon of any kind] [an explosive substance].
            f.     any [cellular telephone] [portable communication device]
                   intentionally and unlawfully introduced inside the secure
                   perimeter of the state correctional institution.
      2.    At the time, (defendant) was [an inmate] [upon the grounds] of a
            state correctional facility.

industry, prison forestry camp, or any prison camp or prison farm or other
correctional facility, temporary or permanent, in which prisoners are housed,
worked, or maintained, under the custody and jurisdiction of the Department
of Corrections.

      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 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.



                                      - 124 -
      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]. [A

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.

      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.


                                      - 125 -
      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]
           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



                                     - 126 -
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.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed an item,” the State must prove beyond
a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the item and b)
intentionally exercised control over that item.
       Give if applicable.
       Control can be exercised over an item whether the item is carried on a
person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere proximity to
an item does not establish that the person intentionally exercised control over
the item in the absence of additional evidence. Control can be established by
proof that (defendant) had direct personal power to control the item or the
present ability to direct its control by another.
     Joint possession. Give if applicable.
     Possession of an item may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons
may possess anitem.


      Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 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 permittedmay but are not required 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
possessed the controlled 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: 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).

                                       - 127 -
      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.

    25.21 [INTRODUCTION] [REMOVAL] OF CONTRABAND [INTO]
            [FROM] A STATE CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION
                        § 944.47(1)(a), Fla. Stat.

      To prove the crime of [Introduction] [Removal] of Contraband [into]
[from] a State Correctional Institution, the State must prove the following
[three] [four] elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

       Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable.
§ 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.
       Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a
defense to this charge. Accordingly, the defendant is not guilty of this charge if
[he] [she] did not know of the illicit nature of the controlled substance.
      You are permittedmay but are not required 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
possessed the controlled substance.
      To prove (defendant) “possessed a substance,” the State must prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] a) knew of the existence of the
substance and b) intentionally exercised control over that substance.
      Give if applicable.
      Control can be exercised over a substance whether the substance is
carried on a person, near a person, or in a completely separate location. Mere
proximity to a substance does not establish that the person intentionally
exercised control over the substance in the absence of additional evidence.
Control can be established by proof that (defendant) had direct personal
power to control the substance or the present ability to direct its control by
another.
        Joint possession. Give if applicable.


                                        - 131 -
     Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more
persons may possess a 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 proven, you should find [him] [her] guilty.
        If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether (defendant) knew of the
illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him] [her] not
guilty.
        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 [Introduction] [Removal] of Contraband
[into] [from] a State Correctional Institution if the defendant used regular
channels and was authorized by the officer in charge of the correctional
institution to [introduce] [take] [send] the item [into] [from] the state
correctional institution. 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 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 use regular channels or 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.

                                    Comments

      *It is unclear if the courts will determine that Possession of a Controlled
Substance is necessarily included in a charge of [Introduction] [Removal] of
Contraband [Into] [From] a State Correctional Institution. Possession is not a
necessary lesser-included offense of either Sale or Manufacture of a Controlled
Substance. State v. McCloud, 577 So. 2d 939 (Fla. 1991); Anderson v. State, 447
So. 2d 236 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983).
      This instruction was adopted in 2014 [153 So. 3d 192] and amended in 2016
[191 So. 3d 291], and 2017 [216 So. 3d 497], and 2019.
