Florida Law favors all other counties except Miami-Dade citizens and businesses

Feb. 2, 2012 - PRLog -- South Florida Attorney Hector A. Pena, Esq. files a constitutional challenge to Florida Statute 400.471. Mr. Pena explains that the statute was amended in 2009 to include language only affecting the Miami-Dade County area. As such, Mr. Pena argues the statute is a special law in violation of the Florida Constitution. The statute deals with license renewals for Home Health Agencies among other things. The statutory interpretation at issue, has the potential to affect over 750 business in Miami-Dade county and potentially cause thousands of individuals local jobs. Mr. Pena has long been a consumer advocate in the community. In summation he feels the legislature has acted unconstitutionally against Miami-Dade county and it's citizens and business, in essence targeting the law to only apply in Miami-Dade  county bypassing constitutional protections for such legislative endeavors. “It is a sad day when deals are made in Tallahassee that affect us in our backyard without even having the opportunity to know what's going on”, states Mr. Pena.
