THE ORIGINAL CONMAN
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH PENSACON FOUNDER MIKE ENSLEY By Gina Castro
If you were to ask a Pensacola local “What is Pensacon?” you would, honestly, get hundreds of answers, but for the most part, you would be told that this comic convention is unlike any other. With a celebrity guest list that always delivers and venues spread throughout downtown, it’s hard to talk about anything but Pensacon during the month of February. Throughout the years, Downtown Crowd has made a point to focus its February issue on Pensacon, but we realized that we haven’t taken the time to get to know the mastermind behind Pensacon. Mike Ensley grew up right here in Pensacola. His interest in science fiction, horror and fantasy, or “the nerd world” as he likes to call it, began with an obsession over Batman at five years old. Ensley found himself captivated by reruns of the 1966 live action version of Batman. Once he discovered Star Trek and Star Wars, everything in that genre opened up to him. By 11 years old, much like the cast of Stranger Things, he was bewitched by Dungeons and Dragons, which ultimately led him to his first convention during his eighth grade year. The convention was in the Holiday Inn behind University Mall, neither of which are there today. His mom dropped him off in a bustling room of people playing D&D. He walked around talking to people and ended up chatting with world renowned Star Wars artist Dave Dorman, back when Dorman was just a kid from Destin. And just like that, Ensley was hooked. “Once I was old enough, I would go to everything from small local things to DragonCon to San Diego Comic Con and everything in between,” Ensley said. “I always kind of thought I would like to do this and run a convention one day.” Eventually, Ensley decided to make a career out of his passion. He went to Pensacola State College for journalism and became a graphic artist. In 2001, Ensley and his longtime friend Chip Chism started their own tv show Nightmare Theatre, which is similar to Mystery Science
Theatre 3000. Ensley played the minor demon Baron Mondo Von Doren and his sidekick was masked wrestler El Sapo de Tempesto, played by Chism. The two friends shot the show on home video equipment, edited it themselves and bought time to air it on local lease-accessed programing. They also made and sold their own commercials. Nightmare Theatre hosted Ghouls Gone Wild Weekend on Spike TV in 2006. The show is now on PBS in five different cities and five different stations both in Florida and Tennessee. Ensley credits his years of hosting events for Nightmare Theatre at local movie theatres and nightclubs for helping prepare him to host Pensacon. “We did a lot of events with Nightmare Theatre. It helped me learn how to do an event, certainly not at the scale that I do now, but it got my feet wet,” Ensley said. The one concern that was holding Ensley back from doing Pensacon was the culture. He wanted to make sure that the comic book and fantasy culture was at a point where this new convention would have plenty of support. As Marvel Universe started releasing movies like Captain America and The Avengers around 2013, Ensley saw his chance to launch Pensacon, so he decided to test the waters through a small Facebook page. “It seemed like, at that time, the culture was right, so I just tested it. I started a Facebook page and asked if anyone would be interested in this,” Ensley said. “Within a week or so, we had over 1,000 people on the page indicating that they were interested in the convention.” So, Ensley hopped right on it. The first thing Ensley focused on was inclusivity. “The first thing I wanted it to be was all inclusive,” Ensley said. “That’s why I didn’t just go after anime guests or just after Star Trek or Star Wars. I wanted to have a little bit of everything, so we have the writers, the artists, the tv celebrities, movie stars, costuming and gaming all under

one roof.” So, Ensley reached out to artists he met throughout the years and planned a one-day event at the American Legion Hall, but as word spread and Ensley wrangled in actors from Star Wars, Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica, the event grew to a two-day event at two major venues: Pensacola Grand Hotel and Pensacola Bay Center.
“The first thing I wanted it to be was all inclusive... I wanted to have a little bit of everything.” “The first year I kind of expected about 3,000 people, but we ended up with close to 11,000 people,” Ensley said. “Then it just grew from there and doubled again in size the second year, and it’s just steadily grown and grown.” Although Pensacon’s first year had thousands of local supporters, it also had naysayers. “A lot of people were very skeptical when we first started,” Ensley said. “They thought Pensacola wouldn’t be able to support something like this.” But Ensley stayed motivated. He went
WE’RE SOCIAL
door-to-door on Palafox asking businesses to take a chance on Pensacon. “People said ‘yeah we’d love to be a part of it,’ so that first year, we had probably six or seven restaurants and bars doing their own parties at their own places,” Ensley said. “That was all it took.” Today, Pensacon has become not only more inclusive on a genre and pop culture level but also on a community level. Ensley selects celebrity guests from a wide range of fandoms but also pop culture icons that just about anyone can connect to, such as this year’s guest Weird Al Yankovic. Pensacon’s venues take over all of downtown— from the Saenger Theatre to the Rex Theatre to the UWF Historic Trust buildings. Even businesses like the Fish House and Perfect Plain go all out with their themed after parties. But most importantly Pensacon makes an impact on the individual. “People have connected and found each other through Pensacon. One of my pharmacists actually met her husband at Pensacon, and they got married,” Ensley said. “We’ve had several engagements.” So whether you are coming to Pensacon to kick it with some celebrities, make friends or maybe find love—thanks to Ensley—Pensacon is the place for you.

SUPREME COURT-CREATED WORKGROUP LOOKS FOR WAYS TO SPEED THE RESOLUTION OF CIVIL COURT CASES A special workgroup that includes two former Bar presidents as members is looking for ways to speed the resolution of civil court cases, according to Chief Justice Charles Canady. Canady told the Supreme Court Historical Society annual dinner on January 30 that the Supreme Court’s Judicial Management Council created the workgroup at the court’s direction. Speaking the next day at The Florida Bar Board of Governors meeting in Tallahassee, Canady also praised a special Bar committee ordered by the court to study regulation of the legal profession, including how it affects access to the legal system. The JMC workgroup membership includes former Supreme Court Justice Ken Bell and former Bar Presidents Scott Hawkins and Gene Pettis, Canady said. “The workgroup we authorized. . . is a workgroup on the improved resolution of civil cases,” he said. “In brief, this is a workgroup we have asked to look at developing recommendations that would be designed to enhance the civil case process in order to deliver justice in a more timely, cost effective, and accountable end, all the while mindful. . . of due process. “The court is focused on, can we get justice for people more expeditiously and appropriately.” The workgroup will issue an interim report in August and its final report is due June 30, 2021, Canady said. The Florida Bar Special Commit-
tee to Improve the Delivery of Legal Services has a slightly different aim, he said. “In consultation with Bar leadership, we have asked The Florida Bar to form a study group to look at a wide range of issues related to the regulation of the legal profession in Florida,” Canady said. “Our desire is to try to figure out if there are ways we can do a better job of getting lawyers to represent the people who need lawyers. We don’t want to have barriers that are unnecessary between clients needing a lawyer and lawyers wanting to serve them,” he said. “It’s about better serving the people of Florida and it’s also about strengthening The Florida Bar and strengthening the legal profession in Florida.” The special committee’s report is due to the court on July 1, 2021. Canady also praised the work done by the board and Bar leaders, saying that is essential to helping the legal system meet the needs of Floridians. “The work you do is work that is necessary to help us carry out our constitutional responsibility. These are hard jobs that you have and it takes a lot of effort,” the chief justice said. “I never cease to be impressed by the lawyers in Florida who are involved in the leadership of the Bar. .. who make such a great contribution to the profession for this state and by doing that serve the people of the state because we are here to serve the people.”

SIMS MIDDLE SCHOOL WINS GRANT TO ENHANCE SCHOOL MEAL PROGRAM Awarded $5,000 from Kellogg’s and No Kid Hungry PACE, FL (February 11, 2020) Kellogg Company and No Kid Hungry have awarded Sims Middle School a $5,000 grant as part of the recent Elevate the Plate Challenge – an initiative designed to reward schools that are utilizing creative and innovative strategies to enhance their school meal program and increase student participation. Sims Middle School’s Cafeteria Manager, Gisela Rodriguez, was selected to be an Elevate the Plate Challenge winner for her idea to expand breakfast seating to include dining al fresco. Many of the students prefer to stand outside in the morning to talk with friends versus
sitting inside to have their morning meal. By leveraging the grant to purchase picnic tables, the team hopes more students will partake in breakfast before the bell. Sims also intends to use the grant to create a monthly after-school culinary program to educate students how to use various culinary techniques to create nutritious meals at home as well as learn about foods from other cultures. “It is our goal to promote student engagement and to enrich their lives in any way possible. This grant will allow us to promote such activities,” said Leslie Bell, Director of Child Nutrition for Santa Rosa County’s Food Service Department. “We are proud to partner with No
Kid Hungry to continue our work to expand school meal programs,” said Wendy Davidson, President of Kellogg’s Away From Home. “We’re also thrilled to celebrate the outstanding foodservice team at Sims Middle School who is leading the way in creating delicious, replicable approaches that encourage more kids to participate in and enjoy school meals.” Sims Middle School is one of ten schools across the country receiving $5,000 grants to support their school meal programs as part of the Elevate the Plate Challenge. “Three out of four public school teachers say students regularly come to school hungry,” said Jill Davis, Chief Revenue Officer at No Kid
Hungry. “But we know getting kids healthy meals at school is a critical step in ending childhood hunger once and for all in America.” Kellogg’s support of No Kid Hungry contributes to the company’s goal of creating Better Days for 3 billion people by the end of 2030. Over the past 4 years, Kellogg and No Kid Hungry’s partnership has supported nearly 1 million kids gaining access to 154 million breakfasts annually. More information about how Kellogg is supporting school meal programs across the U.S. is included in the latest Corporate Responsibility Report.

INNERARITY POINT PARK SLATED TO OPEN IN MARCH
Innerarity Point Park, located at 3835 Cruzat Way, is slated to open in March. The final walk-through on Wednesday, Feb. 12 was a success, and county staff anticipate opening the park by spring break. “It has been a long and sometimes frustrating wait to get the park completed, but I have to say after the walk through, it is clear this park is beyond the caliber of anything that Escambia County has ever known, and will be a jewel in the crown of our entire Parks Department for generations to come,” District 2 Commissioner Doug Underhill
said. “I look forward to presiding over the ribbon cutting in March.” Innerarity Point Park was funded through the Deepwater Horizon NRDA early restoration funds as part of the Florida Coastal Access Project. The approximately four-acre property features two playgrounds, picnic pavilions, a swimming area and an ADA accessible boardwalk and kayak launch. The park is the result of Escambia County, the Trust for Public Land and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection working together to en-
hance the public’s access to nearby natural resources and complement the adjacent Galvez Boat Ramp. Amenities will include an open space for community gatherings, ADA accessible boardwalk, dock large enough for fishing and paddle craft launch, large and small capacity covered pavilions, two playgrounds, restrooms with rinse off areas, parking and native shoreline vegetation. For more information, please contact the Office of Community and Media Relations at 850-535-4934 or email cmr@myescambia. com.

HOUSE, SENATE SIGN OFF ON RECORD STATE SPENDING PLANS
Jim Turner News Service of Florida TALLAHASSEE --- Democrats expressed hope that Republican leaders will increase money for land preservation, boost art funding and avoid the House’s planned sweep of affordable-housing trust funds before joining their Republican counterparts Thursday as both chambers unanimously passed their versions of the state budget. With the House’s proposed budget about $1.4 billion less than the Senate’s spending plan, Thursday’s unanimous votes will kick off negotiations between the two chambers on the record spending proposals. Despite differences over funding and policy in areas such as tourism marketing, education, health care and the environment, Senate Appropriations Chairman Rob Bradley said the gap isn’t as wide as its appears. “If you really do a deep dive on the two budgets and you look at the difference in GR (general revenue) spending, which is a pretty good guide for what the differences look like, it’s a lot closer than perhaps it appears,” Bradley, a Fleming Island Republican, told reporters Thursday afternoon. House Speaker Jose Oliva, R-Miami Lakes, also expressed optimism that the two chambers won’t struggle to find common ground, as was the case last year. “Our relationship with the Senate this year is even better than it was last year,” Oliva said, pointing to his relationship with Senate President
Bill Galvano. “President Galvano and I are legitimate friends and we know that there are things that are important to one another and we know that not everything can be your top priority or your second top priority. But he understands that the House is a policy champion. I mean, we like to fix things via policy and so there’s a lot out there right now. But it’s only week five. The fun doesn’t start ‘til next week,” Oliva said. House and Senate negotiators will square off in conference committees to work on passing a final budget for the 2020-2021 fiscal year, which starts July 1, before the legislative session ends on March 13. Meanwhile, most of Thursday’s floor discussions on the spending plans came from Democrats who both praised the proposals – $91.37 billion in the House and $92.83 in the Senate – and held out hope that more money could be steered to schools, arts and culture, and land preservation. Sen. Darryl Rouson, D-St. Petersburg, said he is concerned about funding for the arts and hopes the funding will improve in conference negotiations. He also discussed criminal-justice reform and substance-abuse treatment. Rep. Margaret Good, D-Sarasota, said there are lots of good things in the House budget, but more work is needed as negotiations begin between the two chambers. She highlighted a need for more funding for mental health and af-
OLIVA OPEN TO GOVERNOR’S E-VERIFY MANDATE
News Service of Florida Staff House Speaker José Oliva said he is “open” to supporting an EVerify bill that would meet the goals of Gov. Ron DeSantis, but expressed doubts about the Senate’s version of the legislation. The Senate Judiciary Committee earlier this week carved out the agriculture industry from a bill (SB 664) that would require employers to use E-Verify, a federal program designed to do immigration checks on all new hires. Oliva told reporters on Thursday he does not agree with exempting certain businesses from the requirement. “If in fact Florida businesses are made to be a certain policing arm for a part of the government, then yes, it should be done equally,” Oliva, R-Miami Lakes, said. A House bill that currently exempts all private businesses has not yet had a committee hearing. But Rep. Coyd Byrd, the bill sponsor, told the News Service of Florida this week he does not support offering certain businesses a “sanctuary.” Byrd, R-Neptune Beach, said he plans to make changes to the private-
business provision in his bill, although he would not offer details. Oliva told reporters the House is still debating whether immigration checks “should be the function of businesses.” DeSantis vowed to mandate E-Verify for all employers during his 2018 gubernatorial campaign, and has made the issue a top priority this session. The governor has made clear he does not support exemptions for private businesses. The Republican Party of Florida has also passed a resolution backing the governor’s position, despite fierce opposition to the proposal from the state’s agriculture, tourism and construction industries, which include major Republican donors. But, midway through the legislative session, the E-Verify effort seems to be gaining support from Republicans. “I think I am open to the idea of something passing that does not become an overburden for businesses and that helps to accomplish what I think the governor would like to accomplish,” Oliva said Thursday.
fordable housing as well as a boost to the House’s $20 million for Florida Forever. “I think this is the time, given the water quality crisis that we’ve experienced in Florida, given the amount of development and amount of people moving to Florida,” Good said of the need to spend more on the Florida Forever program. “It also presents an opportunity to make sure we preserve land for future generations.” The Senate has proposed $125 million for Florida Forever. The Senate has also put up $50 million for Visit Florida, the state’s tourism-marketing agency that Oliva and other House leaders aren’t funding. House leaders dismiss the argument that previous increases in state marketing were behind record tourism numbers. Rep. Anna Eskamani, D-Orlando, touched on the House’s investment in correctional officers and the state National Guard. She also called the environmental budget “robust,” while adding her voice to those pitching for more Florida Forever dollars and affordable housing. “I look forward to the conferencing process to see what the final numbers will look like,” Eskamani said. “I want to see an increase in salary for our teachers and all state workers. And I also want to make sure our veteran teachers are supported alongside support staff like mental health counselors, like bus drivers, like custodians.” The House is recommending
$50 million to give pay raises to corrections officers. The plan would provide eligible officers a $1,800 pay hike. Under the Senate proposal, corrections officers would see a 3-percent salary increase and a bonus based on the amount of time they have worked for the Florida Department of Corrections. The bonuses range from $500 for employees with less than 2 years of service to $2,500 for officers with 5 years or more of experience. The Senate budget seeks a 3 percent across-the-board pay raise for all state employees, while the House would add $1,800 to the annual pay of state workers who earn less than $50,000 a year. The Senate would fully fund affordable-housing programs at $387 million, while the House would spend $147 million and “sweep” other affordable-housing trust fund money to balance the rest of the budget. Gov. Ron DeSantis has made a top priority of setting a minimum salary of $47,500 for public-school teachers, a plan that would cost $602 million. He also wants to spend $300 million on a new bonus program for teachers and principals, with a focus on educators who work in schools in low-income areas. The Senate wants to spend $500 million to raise teacher salaries, while the House is offering $650 million. Neither chamber has proposed money for bonuses.
COURT ALLOWS PROSECUTION OVER AR-15 PHOTO
News Service of Florida Staff A state appeals court Friday said prosecutors can pursue a case against a former North Marion High School student who sent a Snapchat photo to a student showing an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle and the caption, “Show and Tell @NM on Monday.” The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 5th District Court of Appeal overturned a decision by a Marion County circuit judge that dismissed a charge against defendant Blake Michael Cowart of sending a written threat to kill or do bodily injury to child. Cowart sent the photo to a student at the school about two weeks after the Feb. 14, 2018, mass shooting at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that killed 17 people. In arguing for dismissal, Cowart contended that the photo and caption did not threaten to kill or injure the student, identified in Friday’s ruling by the initials Z.M., and that the law governing the issue violated his constitutional right to free ex-
pression. While the circuit judge dismissed the charge, the appeals court said Z.M. testified about feeling threatened. “It was undisputed that the Snap was a photograph of a scoped AR-15 rife with an extended, large-capacity magazine and was captioned, ‘Show and Tell@ NM on Monday,’” said the six-page ruling by appellate judges Jay Cohen, F. Rand Wallis and John Harris. “The state noted … that Z.M. testified under oath that he felt on edge after receiving the Snap and did not believe that the Snap was a joke; he was concerned, especially given the recent school shootings in the country, and believed Cowart was going to bring a gun to the school and shoot it up the following Monday. The reasonableness of Z.M.’s alarm was further supported by the fact that several other NMHS students who saw the Snap were also concerned and contacted the school resource officer regarding the matter.”

FRIED CALLS FOR STATEWIDE PROBE INTO JACKSONVILLE SHOOTING DEATH News Service of Florida Staff Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried has joined others asking the state to investigate the shooting death of 22-year-old Jamee Johnson, who was killed by a sheriff’s deputy during a traffic stop in Jacksonville on Dec. 14. In a letter Friday to Florida Department of Law Enforcement Commissioner Rick Swearingen, Fried requested a review of the use of deadly force by an officer with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office during the traffic stop. “A thorough review by FDLE’s expert special agents and analysts will allay any concerns and bring closure to all the parties involved, the Johnson family, the sheriff’s deputies involved, JSO, and the citizens of Florida,” Fried wrote. The sheriff’s office posted a photo of a gun in the passenger seat of Johnson’s car the same day of the shooting. Officer Josue Garriga shot and killed Johnson after an incident that began as a traffic stop, according to the sheriff’s office. Garriga and another officer involved in the traffic stop are both on administrative leave, the JSO has said. Johnson had been enrolled as a business major at Florida A&M University and was living near the Tallahassee campus. FDLE Spokeswoman Gretl Plessinger said in an email Fri-
day that the state agency has offered assistance to the sheriff’s office. “FDLE does not have the authority to investigate or assist unless the local agency requests it,” Plessinger added. Fried’s letter to Swearingen acknowledged that the state law enforcement agency lacks the statutory authority to launch its own investigation unless Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams requests FDLE’s aid. “However, if you have not already, please offer any and all assistance to JSO and the Duval County State Attorney’s Office (SAO) as they conduct their investigation for presentment to the grand jury,” Fried wrote. As an alternative, Fried, the only Democrat elected statewide, asked Swearingen to conduct an investigation into the findings of the JSO, the state attorney, and the Duval County grand jury, “and present those findings to the Florida Cabinet.” Last month, members of the Legislative Black Caucus held a press conference with members of Johnson’s family to call on the FDLE to investigate the shooting. “It’s clear that there are a lot of questions that have not been answered,” Rep. Ramon Alexander, a Tallahassee Democrat, said during the Jan. 30 event at the Capitol.
FLORIDA MAN WITH HEPATITIS A SUES DENNY’S
News Service of Florida Staff A Florida man who contracted hepatitis A is suing the restaurant chain Denny’s, Inc. and the company that operates a Denny’s franchise in Osceola County. The lawsuit alleges that William Reyes ate at a Denny’s restaurant in Kissimmee in October and “within a few days began experiencing nausea, constipation, fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, and significant weight loss.” Reyes was ultimately diagnosed with hepatitis A, according to the lawsuit. The complaint, filed against Denny’s and franchise operator EYM Realty of Florida, LLC, also alleges that a Department of Health investigation revealed that two restaurant employees were infected with hepatitis A. Denny’s and EYM “had an obligation to ensure a safe and clean dining environment for their patrons,” Reyes’ attorneys John Morgan and Tyler Kobylinski of the Morgan & Morgan law firm said in a statement Friday. “This incurable disease is only transmitted when a person ingests food or water that has been contaminated with the feces of an infected person; it’s unfathomable that this could occur at a family establishment,”
the lawyers said. The lawsuit --filed Thursday in the 9th Judicial Circuit, which includes Orange and Osceola counties --- seeks at least $30,000 in damages and contends that both Denny’s and EYM were negligent and liable for what happened. But EYM Group Director of Legal Services Salvador Elias said the company had not been served with the lawsuit and, therefore, he had no comment. Immediate attempts to contact Denny’s Inc. on Friday were unsuccessful. Florida is in the midst of a hepatitis A outbreak that prompted state officials to declare a public health emergency in August. Since January 2019, nearly 3,200 cases have been reported throughout the state. While the emergency has not ended, the number of new hepatitis A cases has started to drop the last two months. Hepatitis A can cause liver damage and is spread through such things as fecal matter. That can include transmission by people not properly washing their hands after going to the bathroom and contaminating food or drinks. Health officials have urged people to get vaccinated against the disease.

HOUSE SLATED TO TAKE UP PARENTAL CONSENT REQUIREMENT News Service of Florida Staff After Senate approval of the controversial proposal, the House next week will take up a plan that would require parental consent before minors could have abortions. The parental-consent issue (HB 265 and SB 404) is scheduled to be considered during a Wednesday floor session. The proposal has drawn heavy debate about whether lawmakers should place additional restrictions on abortions and the role of parents in helping teens decide whether to end pregnancies. It passed the Republican-controlled Senate on Feb. 6 in a party-line vote. It is
almost certain to pass the House and be sent to Gov. Ron DeSantis, who used part of his State of the State address last month to signal support for a consent requirement. Passage could lead to a legal battle, as opponents say the bill would violate constitutional privacy rights. The Florida Supreme Court in 1989 struck down a parental-consent law, finding that it violated a right to privacy in the state Constitution. But the Supreme Court now has a conservative majority, after the retirements last year of longtime justices Barbara Pariente, R. Fred Lewis and Peggy Quince.
PROPOSED MEDICAID CHANGES DRAW BIPARTISAN CRITICISM
News Service of Florida Staff Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Seema Verma said this week the federal agency has received more than 4,000 comments on a proposed Medicaid regulation that is taking bipartisan heat. “We are reviewing them carefully, and we understand that potential changes in Medicaid financing and payment can have significant ripple effects at the local level,” she wrote in A Feb. 12 blog post. Verma, however, devoted most of the lengthy post to defending the proposed rules. “Alarmist estimates” that the rule would “suddenly remove billions of dollars from the program and threaten beneficiary access are overblown and without credibility,” she wrote. The News Service of Florida reported Wednesday that Florida Medicaid director Beth Kidder sent
a letter to Verma Jan. 31 saying the proposed rule would have a “crippling” impact in Florida, if it were to go into effect. The rule deals with arcane funding mechanisms used by state governments to draw down billions of dollars in federal money for Medicaid, which provides health-care services to 3.8 million poor, elderly and disabled Floridians. The Florida Health Care Association, a statewide group that represents nursing homes, estimates that the proposed rule would have a $660 million impact on its members. The Safety Net Hospital Alliance of Florida estimates the plan could have a $631 million impact on the state’s safety-net facilities and a $250 million impact on medical faculty teaching programs at the University of Florida and the University of Miami.
HOUSE APPROVES REPEAL OF OUTDATED TELEGRAPH RULES
News Service of Florida Staff Obsolete rules about telegraph companies moved closer Thursday to being removed from state laws, more than a decade after Western Union Telegraph Co. sent its last telegram. The Florida House voted 117-0 in support of the proposal (HB 6055) that seeks to eliminate penalties and liability provisions in state laws dealing with transmission of telegraph messages. Noting that the most well-known telegraph service provider, Western Union, last dispatched a telegram on Jan. 27, 2006, a House staff analysis of the proposal said the laws “appear to be outdated and no longer applicable.” In 2017, a Federal Communications Commission order removing “outmoded regulations” indicated the agency was not aware of any interstate telegraph service providers and
declared telegraph service “obsolete.” The House staff analysis said an internet search found a handful of businesses still advertise telegram services, but none of the businesses identified in the search was registered as operating in Florida. The state rules were adopted in 1907 and have gone mostly unchanged since 1913. Under those rules, companies and individuals in Florida face penalties for failing to transmit or receive legible messages in a timely manner, and they can be liable for any “mental anguish and physical suffering” for failing to promptly or correctly deliver telegrams. An identical Senate proposal (SB 1256) has received unanimous support in two committees and awaits a hearing by the Rules Committee before heading to the floor for a full vote.
