What the Florida Public Records Act (Chapter 119) Requires
Under the Florida Public Records Act (Chapter 119) the agency must answer a request promptly and in good faith; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge the copy fees set by statute, plus a special service charge for large requests. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at miamidadeclerk.gov/clerk/public-records-requests.page (page title: Public Records Request).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the State Attorney handles discovery for pending cases.
