921.0022 Criminal Punishment Code; offense severity ranking
chart.--
Editor's Note: Each felony offense is given a ranking under the
Florida Punishment Code. These rankings are given a set number of
points. Points determine whether the sentence is supposed to be a
prison sentence or not. The formula is rather complicated, but 44
is the magic number. Anything above 44 points is supposed to be a
prison sentence. Notice how an offense with the same name may be
in several categories depending on the statutory sub-section. All
level 7 and above offenses score out to state prison BEFORE calculating
victim injury, sex contact, prior record and other factors.
(1) The offense severity ranking chart must be used with the Criminal
Punishment Code worksheet to compute a sentence score for each felony
offender whose offense was committed on or after October 1, 1998.
(2) The offense severity ranking chart has 10 offense levels, ranked
from least severe, which are level 1 offenses, to most severe, which are
level 10 offenses, and each felony offense is assigned to a level
according to the severity of the offense. For purposes of determining
which felony offenses are specifically listed in the offense severity
ranking chart and which severity level has been assigned to each of
these offenses, the numerical statutory references in the left column of
the chart and the felony degree designations in the middle column of the
chart are controlling; the language in the right column of the chart is
provided solely for descriptive purposes. Reclassification of the degree
of the felony through the application of s. 775.0845, s. 775.0861, s.
775.087, s. 775.0875, s. 794.023, or any other law that provides an
enhanced penalty for a felony offense, to any offense listed in the
offense severity ranking chart in this section shall not cause the
offense to become unlisted and is not subject to the provisions of s.
921.0023.
