The bill introduces a new section, 944.085, to the Florida Statutes, which establishes a process for state prisoners with unserved arrest warrants. It allows these prisoners to file a notice of their unserved warrant in the circuit court where the warrant was issued. The bill mandates that the prisoner serve this notice on the state attorney, and the circuit court is required to schedule a status hearing within 90 days of receiving the notice. Notably, the prisoner will not be transported to this hearing, during which the state attorney must confirm the existence of the unserved warrant.

If the court determines that a warrant exists, it must issue an order for the transport of the prisoner to the county jail that issued the warrant within 30 days following the status hearing. This order will then be sent to the county sheriff for execution. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
