Here are the Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure. There seems to be no local court ruls for this court.
The court below held the somewhat different view that G.G. was in constructive possession of the drugs and paraphernalia. Constructive possession is proved by showing that (1) the accused knew of the presence of the contraband, and (2) he could exercise dominion and control over it.
G.G. v. State, 84 So. 3d 1162, 1164 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2012)
Valid Prescription
Mark O'Hara was convicted of trafficking in hydrocodone based on his possession of 58 Vicodin tablets containing that substance. See § 893.135(1)(c)(1)(c), Fla. Stat. (2004). At his trial, he presented evidence that physicians had prescribed the medication for pain he suffered from a chronic inflammatory joint disease and from injuries he had sustained in an automobile accident. O'Hara urges us to reverse his conviction, claiming that the evidence established that he possessed the tablets legally.
