Section 4. It is unlawful for any person to throw, discard, place or deposit litter or junk in any manner or amount whatsoever on any private property in the unincorporated areas of St. Lucie County unless the prior written consent of the owner of said private property has been given. ~EMORA/~DUM ON LITTERING In order to overcome the evidentiary problems this office has encountered in the past in prosecuting "litter" cases, this office proposes the following: The County Commission amend its "Litter" Ordinance to include within its prohibition, persons "who cause litter to be deposited," and also to provide for a presumption that the existence of any litter containing evidence of ownership of the litter would be prima facie evidence of the depositing of the litter. I have also recommended to our State Representative, Charles Nergard, that an amendment to the State "Litter" Law be enacted creating such a presumption in the State "Litter" Law. I have prepared such a proposed amendment to the County "Litter" Ordinance, which changes are indicated by broken underscoring, for the Commission's study and passage. Similar presumptions have been created by our State Legislature in criminal areas where the evidence of the actual commission of a crime is entirely circum- stantial. An example of this is where a meter has been tampered with, there is a presumption that the person receiving the electric current therefrom is the person who tampered with the meter. I believe that such a presumption for "litter" cases would enable this office to establish a prima facie case in Court (some- thing we have been unable to do in the past), and also would require the person whose identity is established from the evidence contained in the litter to prove that he or she did not deposit the litter. The County Commission take advantage of the most recent amendment to the State :'Litter" Statute (a copy of which is to be furnished to each Commissioner) by directing the head or heads of the County Park or Recreation Department to designate certain employees to enforce the State "Litter" Statute. Such employees would be considered "law enforcement officers" for the sole purpose of enforcing the State "Litter" Statute. The amendment provides that the County Commission shall determine the training and qualifications of such employees. I have requested a fo~n~al opinion from the Attorney proof of the act of depositing the litter. Although the County Attorney, Mr. Wilson, has a letter from Attorney General Faircloth dated April 19, 1967, that letter is not a formal opinion of the Attorney General, nor is it contained in the official reports of the Attorney General. Further, the letter does not face the issue of whether proof of origin is sufficient proof of the act of littering. It merely points out that a peace officer can arrest a person without a warrant if the act was committed in his presence, or that a warrant could be issued by a magistrate, if in his opinion, there was sufficient evidence presented by affidavit or witness to establish the probable cause to believe that a particular person committed the offense in question. There appears to be some question as to who has the authority to issue arrest warrants. The statement has been made that only the State Attorney can issue arrest warrants. This is simply not the case. Under no circumstances does the page two State Attorney have the authority to issue an arrest warrant. An arrest warrant can only be issued by a circuit judge, cQunty judge or by a municipal judge for the violation of a municipal ordinance. Although this office does not have the authority to issue an arrest warrant, we do prepare the warrants as a matter of convenience for the judges in St. Lucie and Indian River Counties. In Martin and Okeechobee Counties, the judges themselves prepare the arrest warrants. The State Attorney's Office does not, however, make determination as to whether there is sufficient probable cause for the issuance of an arrest warrant. This office does not have that authority. The only person who decides that is a judge. It is our desire to cooperate in every way with the County Commission and all citizens in the enforcement of all County Ordinances and State Statutes. We will do so within the scope of our authority and within our constitutional mandate that we prosecute in good faith. (See 1974 Supreme Court Case which is attached to this package.) ROBERT E.
