CHILDREN`S CHARITY FUND, INC. vs DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE, 97-005687 (1997)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Filed:Sarasota, Florida Dec. 05, 1997 Number: 97-005687 Latest Update: Aug. 20, 1998

The Issue Whether Petitioner, Children's Charity Fund, Inc., qualifies under Section 212.08(7)(o)2.b., Florida Statutes, for a consumer certificate of exemption as a charitable institution.

Findings Of Fact Petitioner, Children's Charity Fund, is a not-for-profit corporation and qualifies as a tax-exempt organization pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. Petitioner maintains an office in Sarasota, Florida. The articles of incorporation specify that the nature of the business to be transacted and the purpose to be promoted by Children's Charity Fund "shall be exclusively charitable, including raising funds in any lawful manner" for the following purposes: (1) to educate and inform the public about the needs of handicapped and disabled children; (2) to provide referral services and maintain a hot-line for handicapped children; (3) to provide services "in whatever form possible that the Board may deem necessary" for handicapped children and their parents; and (4) to buy medical equipment for handicapped and disabled children. The Children's Charity Fund claims entitlement to a consumer certificate of exemption based primarily on the fourth purpose listed in paragraph 2 above. In carrying out this purpose, the Children's Charity Fund purchases various types of medical equipment for handicapped and disabled children who reside in Florida as well as in other states. The medical equipment is provided to children who need the equipment, but whose parents have no insurance or their requests for the equipment have been turned down by Medicare, Medicaid, or their insurance companies. In determining which applications for medical equipment it will approve, the Children's Charity Fund has not established income limits for the applicant family. The circumstances of each family are considered on a case-by-case basis and factors other than income are also considered. To date, Children's Charity Fund has never denied an application for medical equipment for a handicapped or disabled child, regardless of family income, if such equipment was needed by the child. In addition to purchasing medical equipment for handicapped and disabled children, the Children's Charity Fund provides Christmas gifts and tickets to events organized and promoted by the Children's Charity Fund such as charity softball games. The Children's Charity Fund claims that these gifts and tickets are charitable services. During its most recent fiscal year, the Children's Charity Fund spent less than 50% of its operational expenditures on qualified charitable services. The evidence at hearing established that during the relevant time period, Children's Charity Fund spent less than 35% of its total operating expenditures on qualified charitable services. This percentage does not meet the requirements of Rule 12A-1.001(3)(g)3.e., Florida Administrative Code, which mandates that the organization seeking tax exempt status as a charitable institution spend "in excess of 50.0 percent of [its] operational expenditures toward qualified charitable services." During its most recent fiscal year, Children's Charity Fund spent approximately 50% of its operating expenditures to pay for fundraising activities.

Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED that the Department of Revenue enter a final order denying a consumer certificate of exemption to Petitioner, the Children's Charity Fund, Inc.

JERRY ANN WINTERS vs BOARD OF REGENTS AND UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA, 01-000786 (2001)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Filed:Tampa, Florida Feb. 26, 2001 Number: 01-000786 Latest Update: Oct. 19, 2006

The Issue The amount of attorneys' fees and costs to be awarded to Jerry Ann Winters (Petitioner) based on the Order of the Second District Court of Appeals dated November 8, 2002, and pursuant to Subsection 120.595(5), Florida Statutes (2003).

Findings Of Fact The Petitioner retained attorneys Mark F. Kelly and Robert F. McKee to represent her in an administrative proceeding challenging the proposed termination of her employment by USF and in the appeals that followed the issuance of the Final Orders by USF. Petitioner's Exhibit 1 is an invoice dated December 18, 2002, submitted to the Petitioner by her legal counsel. The invoice contains charges billed to the Petitioner for the period between January 17, 2001, and November 22, 2002. The invoice indicates a total of 339.75 hours expended on her behalf. The invoice contains duplicated entries for November 14, 2002. Discounting the duplication reduces the total hours expended to 339.50. The practice of the Petitioner's counsel is to bill in quarter-hour increments and to round up. According to the invoice, the Petitioner was billed at a rate of $275 per hour. Mark F. Kelly graduated from Vanderbilt Law School in 1976. Since then he has practiced labor and employment law in Florida before state and federal agencies and has a substantial appellate practice. He was previously awarded fees in the range of $250 approximately four years ago. Robert F. McKee graduated from Stetson University College of Law in 1979. He received a Master of Laws degree in Labor and Employment Law from Georgetown University Law Center in 1981. Since then he has practiced labor and employment law in Tampa, Florida. He was previously awarded fees in the range of $250 approximately four years ago. At the hearing, the Petitioner presented the testimony of Steven Greg Wenzel. Mr. Wenzel has practiced law in Florida for more than 30 years and is board-certified in Labor and Employment Law. He has extensive trial experience. He has previously provided expert testimony related to the reasonableness of attorneys' fees in approximately 12 cases. Mr. Wenzel is familiar with the fees charged by attorneys representing employees in employment-related cases in central Florida. Mr. Wenzel's testimony related to the experience, reputation, and ability of Petitioner's attorneys. It also indicated that they have substantial experience in the area of labor and employment law and are well-regarded by their peers. No credible evidence to the contrary was presented during the hearing. Mr. Wenzel's testimony adequately addressed the applicable factors set forth in Rule 4-1.5(b)1 of the Florida Bar's Rules of Professional Conduct to be considered in determining the reasonableness of fees. Mr. Wenzel opined that based on their knowledge and experience, the type and complexity of the case, and the aggressive nature of the litigation; a reasonable hourly rate was $290 ranging to $310. Mr. Wenzel's testimony in this regard is credited. The invoiced rate of $275 per hour is reasonable. Mr. Wenzel also opined that the quarter-hour billing practice was reasonable and, in fact, conservative related to other practices with which he was aware. Mr. Wenzel's testimony in this regard is credited. At the same time that the Petitioner was challenging the proposed employment termination, a civil case involving the Petitioner, a number of the basketball players, and USF was proceeding. In that case, different legal counsel represented the Petitioner. Review of Petitioner's Exhibit 1 indicates that the invoice includes charges related to persons and activities involved in the civil case. Neither Mr. Kelly nor Mr. McKee had any official involvement in the civil case. Mr. Kelly participated apparently unofficially in mediation efforts to resolve the pending disputes. The invoice contains daily total charges for billed activity. On some days, activity was recorded for both the administrative case and the civil case. Charges related to the civil case are not reimbursable in this proceeding. Because the invoice precludes an accurate separation of time spent on the administrative case from the civil case, all billings for dates upon which charges were incurred related to the civil case have been excluded from consideration in this Order. The charges related to conversations with John Goldsmith, who represented the Petitioner in the civil case, are excluded. These charges occurred on March 14, 2001; April 2, 2001; April 6, 2001; September 21, 2001; October 19, 2001; and May 13, 2002, and total 8.25 hours. The charges related to conversations with Jonathon Alpert, who represented the basketball players in the civil case, are excluded. The charges occurred on April 10, 2001, and April 11, 2001, and total 6.75 hours. The charge related to a conversation with Tom Gonzalez, who represented USF in the civil case, is excluded. This charge occurred on April 23, 2002, for .50 hours. The charges related to conversations with Mary Lau, who was a mediator assigned to the civil case, are excluded. These charges occurred on April 24, 2002, and May 8, 2002, and totaled 1.25 hours. The invoice includes a charge for May 15, 2002, related to a telephone conference with "Judge Scriven" regarding settlement. Judge Scriven is otherwise unidentified. The charge, for .25 hours, is excluded. The invoice includes a charge for Mr. McKee's attendance at mediation on May 16, 2002, related to the civil case, for 2.5 hours. This charge is excluded. The sum of the excluded time set forth above is 19.50 hours. Deduction of the 19.50 hours from the properly invoiced total of 339.50 results in a total of 320 hours. Based on Mr. Wenzel's testimony that the invoiced hours were reasonable given the nature and complexity of this case, it is found that the reduced level of 320 hours set forth in the invoice and directly applicable to the administrative case is a reasonable expenditure of time. The invoice also sets forth costs that were billed to the Petitioner. The invoice includes numerous routine office expenses (postage, copying, telephone, and facsimile costs) that are not properly recoverable costs in this proceeding. Other billed costs are set forth without sufficient information to determine the relationship of the cost to the administrative proceeding. A filing fee with the District Court of Appeal was billed on January 15, 2001, preceding the administrative hearing in this case. Further the billed charges include witness fees for several witnesses, only one of which testified in the administrative hearing. The invoice also includes service fees for subpoenas that appear to have been charged subsequent to the completion of the administrative hearing. Based on review of the invoice, properly recoverable costs of $307 are found. This sum includes the following items: witness fee and mileage for Paul Griffin ($7) dated April 5, 2001; service fee for subpoena for Paul Griffin ($50) dated April 11, 2001; and filing fee-clerk, District Court of Appeal ($250) dated October 5, 2001. Petitioner's Exhibit 2 is a "Retainer and Fee Agreement" executed by the Petitioner and her counsel which provides as follows: Partial contingency fee. Client will pay for services rendered at the reduced rate of $110 per hour. To compensate attorney for this reduced rate and the risk involved in undertaking a case on these terms, in addition to the $110 hourly rate, attorney will be entitled to 25% of any settlement money or judgment. In the event attorney's fees are awarded to the client by any court or tribunal and collected, attorney will be entitled to such fee (less any amount paid by client, which will be reimbursed pro rata) or the partial contingency fee, whichever is greater. Attorney requires a retainer deposit from client in the amount of $2,500, to be replenished from time-to-time as required to cover outstanding fees and costs. The Retainer and Fee Agreement is dated December 2, 2002, and the Order of the District Court of Appeal for the Second District, which granted the Petitioner's Motion for fees and costs, is dated November 8, 2002. It is unclear whether a written agreement between the Petitioner and legal counsel existed prior to the December 2, 2002, agreement.

MAURICE PARKES vs DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES, 02-001354 (2002)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Filed:Largo, Florida Apr. 04, 2002 Number: 02-001354 Latest Update: Oct. 14, 2002

The Issue Did the Department of Children and Family Services (Department) improperly deny funds to Maurice Parkes for the purchase of bottled water?

Findings Of Fact Upon consideration of the oral and documentary evidence adduced at the hearing, the following relevant findings of fact are made: The Department is the agency of the State of Florida charged with the responsibility of administering the Medicaid Developmental Disabilities Home and Community-Based Services Waiver Program (Medicaid Waiver Program), the Family care program, and the provisions of in-home subsidies. Petitioner is a developmentally disabled child who lives in his family's home and receives numerous services from the Department for his developmental disability, medical, and physical problems. The services presently being furnished to Petitioner are funded through the Medicaid Waiver Program. The bottled water at issue is not funded through the Medicaid Waiver Program and would have to be funded through General Revenue funds. General Revenue funds appropriated by the legislature for the fiscal year 2001-2002 to the Department have largely been moved to the Medicaid Waiver Program to obtain the benefit of federal matching funds, which are provided at the rate of 55 cents for each 45 cents of state funds. The use of General Revenue Funds to obtain matching federal funds for the Medicaid Waiver Program allows the Department to service some of those developmentally disabled clients that are presently eligible for the Medicaid Waiver Program but have not been receiving services due to lack of funding. There are no uncommitted funds in the General Revenue category of the Developmental Services' budget that could be used to fund the purchase of bottled water for Petitioner.

Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is recommended that the Department enter a final order denying Petitioner's request to provide him with bottled water. DONE AND ENTERED this 9th day of July, 2002, in Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida. WILLIAM R.

SEMINOLE COMMUNITY ACTION, INC. vs. DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS, 84-001055 (1984)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Number: 84-001055 Latest Update: Mar. 01, 1985

Findings Of Fact Petitioner, Seminole Community Action, Inc. (SCA), is a community action agency serving Seminole County, Florida. The organization is a non- profit corporation located at 1101 Pine Avenue, Sanford, Florida and has been in operation since 1966. According to its by-laws, SCA administers the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) program in Seminole County. The general purpose of the agency is to plan and mobilize resources to help improve the quality of life for low income families throughout the community. Its primary source of funding has been from the federal and state governments although it does receive a small amount of private funding through contributions. Effective July, 1982 the responsibility for administering the CSBG program was shifted from the federal government to respondent, Department of Community Affairs (DCA). This meant that applications for CSBG funding would thereafter be filed with respondent rather than the United States Department of Health and Human Services. After considerable difficulty in preparing its initial application, SCA filed an application with DCA on January 28, 1983 seeking a $95,435 CSBG grant retroactive to the period December 1, 1982 through September 30, 1983. The contract called for monthly payments to SCA of $9,543.50 and required SCA to serve an estimated 4,075 CSBG eligible low-income clients during the 10-month period. Prior to filing the application, DCA representatives spent two days with SCA officials assisting them in completing the application. At that time, SCA was told that its fiscal records and operations were inadequate, that certain changes would be necessary relative to recording liabilities on its books, that its purchasing procedures must be improved, and that its record- keeping in general was in poor condition. Because of these deficiencies, DCA advised SCA by letter dated February 18, 1983, that seven special conditions pertaining to fiscal accountability would attach to the grant of funds. These conditions are set forth in Attachment A to the contract. In addition, DCA advised SCA by letter dated February 24, 1983 of federal requirements pertaining to the composition of its board of directors. Information concerning SCA's compliance with the board requirements was requested no later than March 17, 1983. A contract was eventually signed by SCA on March 29, 1983 whereby it agreed to adhere to the seven special conditions. DCA representatives made two "monitoring visits" to SCA on May 18-20, 1983 and June 1-3, 1983 to determine if the organization's fiscal operation, board composition and program services were in compliance with state regulations and contract terms. Although SCA was given advance notice of the visits, and told to have appropriate records available to substantiate fiscal reports, client records, compliance with the seven special contract conditions, and other matters, the auditors found a "lack of compliance with the law for the structure of the Board," 1/ "lack of fiscal procedures and adequate controls for fiscal accountability," "no documentation that the agency (was) serving low income persons," and a "questionable effort" to provide services to that class of persons. A more detailed list of deficiencies is found in respondent's exhibit 8 received in evidence. As a result of the above deficiencies, SCA was advised by letter dated June 15, 1983 that "it (was) imperative that corrective measures be promptly undertaken to correct these problems." A deadline for compliance in eight specific areas was set for July 15, 1983, and if it did not do so, SCA was told the contract would be terminated. On July 15, 1983, SCA was notified by letter that its contract was being terminated effective June 30, 1983. Such action was appropriate because SCA failed (a) to comply with board of director structure requirements, (b) to resolve a carry-over debt from a prior year, (c) to justify a $9,544 budget amendment, (d) to resolve $3,700 in disallowed costs, and (e) to "demonstrate a continuing fiscal accountability to the satisfaction of the Department." Petitioner has also participated in the State Weatherization Assistance Program whereby it receives state funds for conservation purposes. These are federal grant monies funded under the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Act of 1981, and are granted for the purpose of providing information, services and technical assistance concerning weatherization and energy conservation to the low income community. It received $21,432 in grant funds during the fiscal year 1982-83, and was subjected to an audit by a state monitoring team in July, 1983 to insure compliance with program goals. The team found SCA had paid salaries from the grant funds in violation of federal regulations and had constructed a "cooler room" to store surplus food with grant monies in violation of federal law. Then, too, CA's administrative expenses totaled 34.9 percent of total funds which was far in excess of the norm of 5 percent for other agencies. Finally, it spent on the average over $1,300 to weatherize each home when the maximum allowed was only $1,000 per home. Because of these deficiencies, SCA's application for renewal of the program during 1983-84 was properly denied. Petitioner has also made application for CSBG funds for fiscal year 1983-84. Since the time its 1982-83 contract was terminated, SCA has failed to satisfy the concerns which were raised in the letter of July 15, 1983 which terminated the contract. Specifically, its Board of Directors still does not comply with federal or state requirements, and its fiscal irregularities have not been resolved. Until it does so, it is ineligible for grant funds and DCA is justified in refusing to approve SCA's applications. SCA contends all matters raised in the July 15, 1983 termination letter have been satisfactorily resolved. In making this contention it relies primarily upon a letter dated February 15, 1984 from the United States Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services to SCA, and the adoption of amended by- laws which comply with federal guidelines pertaining to community action agency board of directors. However, neither the letter nor the amended by-laws satisfy the long-standing deficiencies cited by DCA.

Recommendation Based on the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law, it is RECOMMENDED that the relief requested in Seminole Community Action, Inc.'s petition be DENIED. DONE and ORDERED this 1st day of March, 1985, in Tallahassee, Florida. DONALD R.

KELLY A. CUMMINGS vs STATE BOARD OF ADMINISTRATION, 16-001947 (2016)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Filed:Jensen Beach, Florida Apr. 08, 2016 Number: 16-001947 Latest Update: Dec. 15, 2016

The Issue The issue is whether Petitioner is entitled to rescind a "second election" to invest in the Florida Retirement System (FRS) Investment Plan on the ground that, when filed, the second election failed to comply with the requirements of sections 121.4501(4)(g) and 121.021(17)(b), Florida Statutes (2012).

Findings Of Fact On August 9, 2004, Petitioner first became eligible to participate in the FRS. At the time, she was employed by Monroe County in its building department. On February 21, 2005, Petitioner timely elected to participate in the FRS Pension Plan, which is a defined benefit plan, rather than the FRS Investment Plan, which is a defined contribution plan. Petitioner participated in the FRS Pension Plan until the events described in this paragraph. Her last day of work was in June 2012, although she did not formally terminate her employment until December 6, 2012. At the time, Petitioner was experiencing health problems that Petitioner worried would prevent her from continuing to perform the duties of her job with Monroe County. In July 2012, Petitioner called the FRS financial guidance line and discussed transferring to the FRS Investment Plan, so she could withdraw funds to live on during a period of extended unemployment for health reasons. Even though Petitioner did not work after June, from November 1 through 6, she received pay for 13.25 hours of unused sick leave and 5 hours of unused annual leave. For the remainder of the month, Petitioner was on leave without pay. On November 29, Petitioner called the FRS financial guidance line to discuss again transferring to the FRS Investment Plan. An FRS representative warned her that, to make an election, she would have to be "employed with the FRS service credit" to make a second election. On the same day, Petitioner filed a second election with Respondent to transfer from the FRS Pension Plan to the FRS Investment Plan. In a form mailed on December 3, 2012, Respondent acknowledged receipt of Petitioner's second election, effective December 1, 2012. There is some dispute as to whether Respondent adequately advised Petitioner of any grace period to rescind her second election, but she did not attempt to do so until over three years had elapsed, as noted below. On April 5, 2013, Petitioner called the FRS financial guidance line and asked about withdrawing some of the funds in her FRS Investment Plan. She was informed that, if she did so, she could not defer compensation to this account on regaining FRS-covered employment. In September or October 2015, Petitioner obtained FRS-covered employment at the library of the City of Islamorada. On November 1, 2015, Petitioner called the FRS financial guidance line and asked about rescinding her second election. An FRS representative told her that she would have to submit a request for "intervention." On February 10, 2016, Petitioner filed a request for intervention, stating that no one had warned her that, if she withdrew any funds from the defined contribution account, she could not again defer compensation to this account. By letter dated March 4, 2016, Respondent denied the request solely on the ground that Petitioner had earned service credit for the month of November 2012 when she filed her second election, so, since she had not yet terminated employment, her second election was lawful.

Recommendation It is RECOMMENDED that Respondent enter a final order dismissing Petitioner's request for hearing on Respondent's denial of her request for intervention to allow her to transfer from the FRS Investment Plan to the FRS Pension Plan.
