challenge various Florida Statutes regarding election legislation and voter registration. Griffin

defense of each case. Current pending matters are as follows with the cases being at
various stages of litigation:
A) League of Women Voters of FL v. Sec'y of State Lee, Joyce Griffin, et al, 4:21-cv-00186;

cases were remanded to the District Court(Chief Judge Walker), who issued a Final
Order on Remand (on 2/8/24) that the drop-box restrictions and registration-delivery
requirements in SIB 90 were not unconstitutional, because they did not unduly burden the
right to vote. The case is essentially finished, other than motions for attorneys' fees and
costs which are still pending_

then the trial court granted leave for Plaintiffs to file their Fourth Amended Complaint. All

determination of the amount of attorney's fees that plaintiff may recover from the State
defendants, but not the Supervisors.

Magistrate ordered one-time fines as follows: VR-OCT24-0033, $3,000; VR-DEC24-0037,
$6,800; VR-OCT24-0032, $6,200; VR-DEC24-0038, $10,000 per stipulated agreement of the
parties. In VR-OCT24-0034 the owners were ordered to cease and desist vacation rental
activity with a $100 per day fine and $3,000 one-time fine. In VR-NOV24-0036 the
Magistrate found that it was a repeat violation and the owner was ordered to cease and
desist vacation rental activity with a $150 per day fine and $15,000 one-time fine.

negotiated a settlement of the foreclosure matter filed in the Circuit Court of the Sixteenth

would have been erased as a junior lien in the event of a final foreclosure judgment/judicial
sale. In exchange for the voluntary dismissal of the foreclosure action, the County waived
$15,000 of the $35,000 owed, and received the agreed upon balance of$20,000. The Funds
cleared and a Satisfaction of Mortgage was prepared on 1/21/25. This report satisfies the
