    In re STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES—REPORT 2011-04.
    No. SC11-2012.
    Supreme Court of Florida.
    March 29, 2012.
    Samantha L. Ward, Chair, Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases Committee, Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, Tampa, FL, for Petitioner.
   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 approve the amended standard instructions. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.

In In re Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases—Report No. 2007-4., 983 So.2d 531 (Fla.2008), the Court authorized for publication and use nine new standard criminal jury instructions pertaining to the offenses of failure to register by sexual offenders (instructions 11.14 and 11.14(a)-11.14(h)), and thirteen new standard criminal jury instructions pertaining to the offenses of failure to register by sexual predators (instructions 11.15 and 11.15(a)-11.15(1)). The Committee requests that the Court amend these instructions in light of recent legislative changes to section 775.21, Florida Statutes (2011), The Florida Sexual Predators Act, and section 943.0435, Florida Statutes (2011), which requires that sexual offenders register with the sheriffs office.

We agree with the majority of the Committee’s proposals. The phrase “or transient” is added to “residence” in instructions 11.14, 11.14(a) — 11.14(g), 11.15, and 11.15(a)-11.15(k). This change is consistent with the statutory changes made by chapter 2010-92, sections 2 and 4, Laws of Florida. In addition, element number B of instructions 11.15(g), 11.15(i), and 11.15(j) is amended with “temporary residence” and “permanent residence” added as needed pursuant to chapter 2010-92, section 2, Laws of Florida. The Court also adds the definitions for “convicted” as set out in section 943.0435(l)(b) and “conviction” under section 775.21(2)(e). Moreover, section 943.0435(l)(c) expressly provides that “temporary residence” and “transient residence” shall have the same definitions as those provided in section 775.21, which was amended by the Florida Legislature in 2010. See chapter 2010-92, section 2, Laws of Florida.

However, the Court does not agree with the proposals to remove language from instructions 11.14, 11.14(g), 11.15(b), 11.15(i), and 11.15(k) pertaining to providing a physical residential address, and from instructions 11.14(h) and 11.15(2) defining “physical residential address.” Although the Legislature recognized that the offender or predator may live in a “transient” residence — i.e., one which includes but is not limited to a location without a specific street address — sections 775.21 and 943.0435 still include the following language: “A post office box shall not be provided in lieu of a physical residential address.” See §§ 775.21(6)(a)l.; gd&odss^Q)).

The revised instructions, as set forth in the appendix to this opinion, are authorized for publication and use. New language is indicated by underlining and deleted language is indicated by struck-through type. In authorizing the publication and use of these instructions, we express no opinion on the correctness of the instructions and remind all interested parties that this authorization forecloses neither requesting an additional or alternative instruction nor contesting the legal correctness of the instructions. We further caution all interested parties that any notes and comments associated with 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. The instructions shall be effective when this opinion becomes final.

It is so ordered.

CANADY, C.J, and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, POLSTON, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur.

Comment

This instruction was adopted in 2008[983 So.2d 531] and revised in 2012. 
      
      . The Florida Public Defender Association, in its comment to the Committee's proposals, recommends that the Court rewrite these instructions to reflect that failing to report a physical residential address is not an element of the offense. However, the Court does not decide substantive issues in the course of authorizing the publication and use of proposed jury instructions. Instead, absent further clarification from the Legislature, that matter must await the Court's consideration in an actual case and controversy.
     
      
      . 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.
