STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

JOHN LAY AND JANET LAY, Petitioners, OGC CASE NOs. 01 -0203 01-0204 VS. DOAH CASE NOs. 01-1541 01-1542 DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL DEP01-0860; DEP01-0876 PROTECTION, Respondent. _____________________________________/

FINAL ORDER On August 14, 2001, an Administrative Law Judge with the Division of Administrative Hearings (hereafter "DOAH") submitted his Recommended Order to the Department of Environmental Protection (hereafter "Department"). A copy of the Recommended Order was also furnished to pro se Petitioners, John and Janet Lay (hereafter the "Lays").' A copy of the Recommended Order is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Exceptions to the Recommended Order were timely filed on behalf of the Department. The Recommended Order and the Exceptions are now before the Secretary of the Department for final agency action.

BACKGROUND The Lays are the owners of Lots 16 and 17, Cayo Costa Subdivision, located on Cayo Costa Island in Lee County, Florida. On July 12, 2000, the Lays filed a consolidated application for exemption from the need to obtain an environmental resource permit and for a consent of use for a 208 square foot single-family dock. A portion of the proposed dock project would be built on sovereign submerged lands owned by the State of Florida underlying a lagoon west of Pelican Bay. Due to the Department's focus on minimizing adverse impacts on mangroves bordering the lagoon, the Lays eventually agreed to submit additional information and to reduce the size of their proposed dock to 58 square feet. The revised application was granted by the Department on August 21, 2000, in DEP File No. 36-0172390-001. The consent of use included General Consent Conditions. Among other things, they stated: "The Letter of Consent associated with these General Consent Conditions as well as these conditions themselves are subject to modification after five (5) years in order to reflect any applicable changes in statutes, rule or policies of the Board [of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund] or its designated agent [DEP] .,, 2 There were no other conditions or statements regarding modification or revocation of the consent of use. After obtaining their exemption and consent of use in DEP File No. 36-0172390-001, the Lays determined that they needed a larger dock. On September 11, 2000, the Lays applied for another exemption and consent of use for a 114 square foot single family dock. This application was granted by the Department on October 14, 2000 in DEP File No. 36-0172390-002. This consent of use contained the same General Consent Conditions as the first consent of use for the proposed 58 square foot dock. Like the original consent of use issued to the Lays, no provisions were set forth in the consent of use issued in DEP File No. 36-0172390-002 regarding modification or revocation. In January of 2001, the County Attorney for Lee County sent the Department a copy of a boundary survey of Lots 16 and 17 prepared by Ted B. Urban, a professional land surveyor. See, the Lays' "Exhibit A" admitted into evidence at the DOM final hearing. This boundary survey reflects that the Lays' proposed dock facility would have to traverse a strip of land above mean high water ("MHW') approximately 10-15 feet in width. This strip of land east of the boundaries of Lots 16 and 17 and above the MHW is designated as a "road easement" on the boundary survey. Based primarily on its review of this boundary survey, the Department concluded that the Lays were not "upland riparian" landowners within the purview of Rule 1821.004(3)(b), Florida Administrative Code ("F.A.C."). Accordingly, the Department issued a letter dated January 18, 2001, notifying the Lays that the prior consents of use of sovereign submerged lands issued in DEP File Nos. 36-0172390-001 and 360172390-002 "are hereby revoked." See "DEP Ex. 15" admitted into evidence at the DOM final hearing. The Lays then filed a petition contesting the Department's agency action proposing to revoke the two prior consents of use.

DOAH PROCEEDING

Page 4: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

The Department forwarded the Lays' petition to DOAH and requested a formal administrative proceeding. Administrative Law Judge, J. Lawrence Johnston ("ALX), was assigned to preside over the case. The ALJ held a formal administrative hearing in this case on June 29, 2001. In his subsequent Recommended Order, the ALJ concluded that the Department did not have legal authority to revoke the two consents of use previously issued to the Lays. This legal conclusion of the ALJ was based on several grounds, including the applicability to this case of the doctrine of "administrative finality." The ALJ ultimately recommended that the Department enter a final order disapproving the notice dated January 18, 2001, attempting to revoke the two consents of use issued to the Lays in DEP File Nos. 36-0172390-001 and 36-0172390-002.

RULINGS ON THE DEPARTMENT'S EXCEPTIONS Exception No. 1 The Department's first Exception objects to the ALJ's Conclusions of Law 16, 17, and 18. These challenged legal conclusions of the ALJ all pertain to the issue of whether the doctrine of "administrative finality" applies in this case. The rationale underlying the administrative finality doctrine is that there must be a "terminal point at which the parties and the public may rely on a decision of an agency as being final and dispositive of the rights and issues therein." Reedy Creek Utilities Co. v. Florida Public Service Commission, 418 So.2d 249, 253 (Fla. 1982); Peoples Gas System, Inc. v. Mason, 187 So.2d 335, 339 (Fla. 1966). The ALJ concluded that the administrative finality doctrine did apply in this case, thereby precluding the Department from revoking the two prior consents of use granted to the Lays in the year 2000. The sole legal authority cited and discussed by the ALJ as precedent for his conclusion that the administrative finality doctrine precluded the Department from revoking the two prior consents of use granted to the Lays is a prior final order of this agency entered in the case of Dept. of Environmental Protection v. Brotherton and Sportman's Lodge Development Corp., ER FALR 97:172 (Fla. DEP 1997). The Brotherton Final Order relied on the administrative finality doctrine as the basis for disapproving an attempted revocation by the Department in 1996 of a permit exemption determination and a consent of use granted to Brotherton in 1993 in connection with a proposed dock repair project in Citrus County. The Department contends that the 1997 Brotherton Final Order relied upon by the ALJ is distinguishable on its facts and is not controlling as to the disposition of the instant case. This contention of the Department's is based on a portion of the Brotherton Final Order stating that:

the record in this case does not demonstrate that the Department's attempted revocation of DER's Letter of Exemption No. 092309393 is based on critical newly-discovered evidence not included in Brotherton's 1993 exemption application package." (emphasis supplied)

The Department asserts that, unlike Brotherton, there is "critical newly-discovered evidence" in this case supporting the propriety of the revocation action of this agency. The critical newly-discovered evidence relied upon by the Department is the boundary survey it received from the County Attorney for Lee County in January of 2001. See the Lays' "Exhibit A." The Department's contention that the boundary survey constitutes "critical newly discovered evidence" is based on the fact that this survey shows a 60-foot wide "road easement" adjacent to the eastern boundaries of Lots 16 and 17. The boundary survey further reflects that, at the point where the Lays propose to build their dock, about 10-15 feet of the road easement is located above the MHW point. The Department argues that the existence of this 10-15 foot wide road easement between the eastern boundaries of Lots 16 and 17 and the MWH at the proposed dock site precludes the Lays from being "upland riparian" landowners under Rule 18-21.004(3)(b), F. A. C.

Page 5: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

The Department's contention that the road easement constitutes a separate parcel of property between Lots 16 and 17 and the MWH was rejected by the ALJ. Instead, the AU concluded that, due to the absence of any proof in this case to the contrary, the Lays own to the centerline of the 60-foot road easement shown on the boundary survey as a matter of established real property law. See, e.g., Smith v. Horn, 70 Fla. 484, 70 So. 435, 436 (Fla. 1915); Joseph v. Duran, 436 So.2d 316, 317 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983); Feig v. Graves, 100 So.2d 192, 196 (Fla. 2d DCA 1958). 1 agree with the ALJ's application of this settled rule of real property law to the facts of this case. In his Recommended Order, the AU asserted that there was no evidence presented at the DOM final hearing that the road easement in question was ever officially dedicated to the public and/or that dedication of the road easement was ever officially accepted by Lee County. The AU also asserted that no evidence was presented at the final hearing that the developer of the Cayo Costa Subdivision retained any reversionary interest in the road easement. Neither of these assertions of the AU was challenged by the Department in its Exceptions. I further agree with the ALJ's related finding that the Lays' ownership to the centerline of the 60-foot wide road easement would place the MHW adjacent to property owned by the Lays at the point where the proposed dock is to be built. Therefore, contrary to the Department's claim, the boundary survey does not establish that there is a separate upland parcel of land not owned by the Lays between the eastern boundaries of Lots 16 and 17 and the MHW at the dock site. Consequently, even when the boundary survey relied upon by the Department is taken into consideration, it still fails to establish that the Lays are not "upland riparian" landowners under Rule 18-21.004(3)(b), F.A.C. I thus reject the Department's suggestion that the matters reflected in the boundary survey constitute "critical newly discovered evidence" rendering the doctrine of administrative finality inapplicable to the final action of this agency granting the two consents of use to the Lays in the year 2000. I acknowledge that there is Florida case law concluding that, notwithstanding the administrative finality doctrine, a state agency may revoke or modify a prior final action under "extraordinary circumstances." See, e.g., Russell v. Dept. of Business & Professional Regulation, 645 So.2d 117, 119 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994); Richter v. Florida Power Corp., 366 So.2d 798, 800 (Fla. 2d DCA 1994). However, for the reasons stated above, I do not view the boundary survey received by the Department in January of 2001 to be the source of such "extraordinary circumstances" as to warrant the revocation of the two consents of use granted to the Lays in the year 2000. I also recognize that, notwithstanding the administrative finality doctrine, a state agency may be expressly authorized by statute or rule to revoke or modify a prior final action under certain conditions. For instance, the Department is expressly authorized to suspend and/or revoke regulatory "permits" under stated conditions pursuant to Rules 62-4.100 and 62-343.140, F.A.C. However, the courts have ruled that the term "permit," within the context of environmental regulation provisions, does not include a lease, license, easement, or other form of consent to use sovereign submerged lands granted pursuant to Chapter 253, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 18-21, F.A.C. Graham v. Edwards, 472 So.2d 803, 807 (Fla. 3d DCA 1985). Accordingly, the Department's Exception No. 1 is denied. Exception No. 2 In its second Exception, the Department objects to the ALJ's Conclusions of Law 13, 14, 15, and 21. The challenged legal conclusions of the AU deal with the apparent lack of any express statutory or rule authority for the Department to revoke a prior final agency action granting a consent of use of sovereign submerged lands on behalf of the Trustees. In my preceding ruling, I determined that the Department's attempted revocation of the two consents of use granted to the Lays in the year 2000 is precluded by the doctrine of administrative finality. The Department's second Exception is also denied for the same reason. I would also note that the Department's second Exception fails to cite to any statute or administrative rule expressly authorizing the Department to revoke, on behalf of the Trustees, a prior final agency action granting a consent of use of sovereign submerged lands. I agree that when the Department is exercising its delegated authority from the Trustees, it is acting in a proprietary capacity that is different from this agency's regulatory capacity. Accord Graham, 472 So.2d at 807. 1 am also aware that there is case law suggesting that a prior consent of use of sovereign submerged lands may be subject to revocation under some conditions, provided that there is compliance with the provisions of the Florida Administrative Procedure Act ("APA"). See Trustees v. Barnett, 533 So.2d 1202, 1206 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988). In any event, I conclude that the boundary survey relied upon by the Department does not reflect the existence of conditions that are sufficient to warrant revocation of the two consents of use previously granted to the Lays, even though the requirements of the APA were met in this case. The Department's Exception No. 2 is thus denied. Exception No. 3 The Department's third Exception objects to the ALJ's Conclusions of Law 19 and 20. The Department contends that these legal conclusions of the AU should be rejected because both the AU and the Department lack jurisdiction to resolve the real property issues raised by the boundary survey and the road easement. However, I do not find this contention of the Department to be persuasive.

Page 6: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

In the course of reviewing applications for authorizations to use sovereign submerged lands, the Department is required by law to make an initial determination that the applicant is an "upland riparian owner" or has "sufficient title interest in uplands for the intended purpose." See Rule 18-21.004(3), F.A.C. The only reason given by the Department for initially considering the subject boundary survey was to determine whether it contained data indicating whether or not the Lays were upland riparian landowners as required by Rule 18-21.004(3). If the Department does lack jurisdiction to determine whether an applicant is an "upland riparian owner" within the purview of Rule 18-21.004(3), then the provisions of this Trustees rule would be rendered essentially meaningless. In every proceeding where an applicant's position as an upland riparian owner is disputed by the Department, the matter would presumably then have to be submitted to a circuit court for resolution. The judiciary, and not the Department, would thus become the reviewer of these disputed applications for authorizations to use sovereign submerged lands. In addition, the Department's claim that this agency lacks jurisdiction to resolve the real property issues incidental to the determination of whether the Lays are upland riparian owners appears to be directly inconsistent with the prior actions of this agency. The very agency action contested in this proceeding involves a preliminary determination by the Department that the Lays are not upland riparian owners and are thus not entitled to a consent of use of sovereign submerged lands. It is undisputed that the boundary survey was cited by the Department as the primary basis for its determination that revocation of the consents of use was warranted. See DEP's Ex. 15. If the Department now lacks jurisdiction to consider the upland riparian ownership issues presented in the subject boundary survey, then it would have also lacked jurisdiction to consider and rely on the boundary survey as the primary basis for revoking the consents of use granted to the Lays. With respect to the suggestion that DOM also lacks jurisdiction to resolve the real property issues raised in the subject boundary survey, it was the Department that gave the Lays written notice that they could contest the agency action revoking the consents of use by filing a petition for an administrative hearing. See DEP's Ex. 15. It was also the Department, not the Lays, that referred this matter to DOM for a formal administrative hearing. I would further note that it was the Department, not the Lays, that relied heavily on the boundary survey to support its legal position in the course of the DOM proceedings. The Department's Exception cites to statutory and case law supporting the general proposition that the circuit courts of this state have exclusive original jurisdiction in "all cases involving the title and boundaries to real property." However, the Department's reliance on this statutory and case law is misplaced. This is not an action involving a dispute between the Lays and a third party as to the boundaries of or title to the road easement shown on the boundary survey. This is also not an action where the Department is seeking a determination that the Trustees have title to all or a portion of the road easement. The Department's own witness, Mark Miller, testified at the DOAH final hearing that a determination was made by the Department's title and land section that "the State did not actually own that real property, but they could not determine who did own that property." (Final Hearing Tr., page 24) In view of the above, the Department's Exception No. 3 is denied. Exception No. 4 The Department's fourth and final Exception does not object to any existing language set forth in the ALJ's Recommended Order. Instead, the Department contends that the AU "appears to apply a 'clear and convincing evidence' standard in Conclusions of Law 15, 18, 19, 20, and 21." Nevertheless, there is no reference by the AU in the Recommended Order to the phrase "clear and convincing evidence." To the contrary, as noted in the Department's Exception, the AU asserts in his Conclusion of Law 12 that the Department "has the burden to prove legal grounds for revocation by [a] preponderance of the evidence." Assuming that the burden of proof is on the Department in a proceeding where a party is challenging an agency action revoking a prior proprietary authorization, then I agree that the appropriate standard of proof to be imposed on the Department is the "preponderance of the evidence" standard. Moreover, I do not construe the provisions of Conclusions of Law 15, 18, 19, 20, and 21 to embody a tacit endorsement by the AU of a "clear and convincing evidence" standard of proof in this administrative proceeding. The Department's Exception No. 4 is denied.

It is therefore ORDERED: A. The Recommended Order of the ALJ, with the modified case style, is adopted and incorporated by reference herein. B. The Department's preliminary action issuing the revocation letter to the Lays on January 18, 2001, is hereby DISAPPROVED. C. This administrative proceeding seeking the revocation of two consents of use granted in DEP File Nos. 36-0172390-001 and 36-0172390-002 is DISMISSED. Any party to this proceeding has the right to seek judicial review of the Final Order pursuant to Section 120.68, F.S., by the filing of a Notice of Appeal pursuant to Rule 9.110, Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure, with the clerk of the Department in the Office of General Counsel, 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, M.S. 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000; and by filing a copy of the Notice of Appeal with the applicable filing fees with the appropriate District Court of Appeal.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE

The issue is whether the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) should revoke two consents of use

issued to the Lays for construction of an exempt dock on Cayo Costa Island near Pelican Bay in Lee County.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

On January 18, 2001, DEP gave notice of intent to revoke the Lays' two consents of use. The next day, the Lays

requested administrative proceedings, which were referred to DOAH on April 25, 2001. (The reason for the delay is not

clear from the record.) At DOAH, the two cases were consolidated and set for final hearing on June 29, 2001. Later, final

hearing was converted to televideo.

At final hearing, DEP called Mark Miller, its environmental manager in the submerged lands and environmental

resources program in DEP's South District office in Fort Myers, Florida. DEP also had DEP Exhibits 1-16 admitted in

evidence. The Lays testified in their own behalf and had Respondents' Exhibits 1, A, C, E, G, H, and I (the latter being

photographs filed after the hearing) admitted in evidence. DEP recalled Miller in rebuttal.

DEP ordered a transcript of final hearing, and the parties were given ten days from filing of the transcript in which

to file proposed recommended orders (PROs). The Transcript was filed on July 9, 2001. Only DEP filed a PRO, which

has been considered.

FINDINGS OF FACT

1. In spring 2000, after contracting to purchase Lots 16 and 17 in the Cayo Costa Subdivision on Cayo Costa

Island in Lee County, but before closing, the Lays contacted Peggy Grant, an environmental specialist in DEP's South

District office in Fort Myers, Florida, to inquire whether it would be possible to construct a single-family dock on and over

Page 10: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

sovereign submerged land owned by the State of Florida in a lagoon west of Pelican Bay. The Lays testified without

contradiction that, in making their inquiry, they showed Grant a boundary survey of the property. The boundary survey

showed that there was a strip of road easement above the mean high water (MHW) line east of all of Lots 16 and 17

except for the extreme southeast corner of the lots. According to the Lays, again without direct contradiction, Grant told

them that it would be possible to construct a dock into the lagoon because the lots were riparian to the lagoon at least at

the southeast corner. It was not clear from the evidence whether Grant told the Lays that their dock could emanate from

parts of their lots other than the southeast corner. The Lays subsequently closed on the property.

2. On July 12, 2000, the Lays filed a consolidated application for exemption from the need to obtain an

environmental resource permit and for consent of use for a 208 square-foot single-family dock emanating from the

easternmost point of the boundary between Lots 16 and 17--a point from which the dock would have to traverse

approximately 10-15 feet of land above MHW designated as roadway easement on the boundary survey.

3. The Lays testified that the boundary survey was part of the application, but no boundary survey was contained

in DEP's files, and it is found that the application did not include the boundary survey. It is found that the Lays, in

testifying as they did, confused the application submission with the inquiry of Peggy Grant in spring 2000. There was no

other information in the application indicating a road easement or the location of MHW.

4. After the Lays filed their application, DEP located the site on an aerial produced by DEP's Geographic

Information System and conducted a site visit. During this phase, DEP and the Lays focused on minimizing impact on

mangroves bordering the lagoon. Negotiations ensued, and the Lays eventually agreed to submit additional information

down-sizing their proposed dock to 58 square feet. The revised application was granted on August 21, 2000, under DEP

File No. 36-0172390-001.

5. The consent of use included General Consent Conditions. Among other things, they stated: "The Letter of

Consent associated with these General Consent Conditions as well as these conditions themselves are subject to

modification after five (5) years in order to reflect any applicable changes in statutes, rule or policies of the Board [of

Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund] or its designated agent [DEP]." There were no other conditions or

statements regarding modification or revocation of the consent of use.

6. After obtaining their exemption and consent of use, the Lays realized they needed a larger dock. On

September 11, 2000, they applied for an exemption and consent of use for a 114 square-foot single-family dock. The

Lays concede that the boundary survey was not included in this application. This application was granted on October 14,

2000, under DEP File No. 36-0172390-002. It included the same General Consent Conditions as the first consent of use

for the 58 square-foot dock and no other conditions or statements regarding modification or revocation of the consent of

Page 11: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

use.

7. The Lays next approached Lee County for a permit for their dock. They showed Lee County their DEP

exemption and consent of use and their boundary survey. On November 13, 2000, Lee County informed the Lays that the

County permit could not be issued due to County setback requirements from the road easement shown on the boundary

survey. The Lays then asked for consideration of a variance from the setback requirements or vacation of the road

easement (which clearly could serve no purpose or be of any use as a road).

8. At that point, the County referred the matter to the County Attorney's office for a legal opinion. On

December 29, 2000, a memorandum opinion was prepared to the effect that the road easement, if implicitly

offered for dedication by filing of the Second Revised Plat of Cayo Costa Subdivision in the early 1910's, was

never accepted by the County. The County surmised that the road easement belonged to the State of Florida. For that

reason, no setback requirements from a road easement applied, and the County permit could be issued.

9. The Lays were informed of the County's legal opinion in early January 2001. They were told that the County

informed DEP of the legal opinion and the boundary survey and that the Lays could expect to receive their County permit

shortly.

10. When DEP was informed about the County's legal opinion, DEP had a copy faxed to its Office of General

Counsel in Tallahassee on January 12, 2001, along with a copy of the boundary survey. Upon review of the

documentation, DEP came to the conclusion that the Lays were not riparian owners at the point of their proposed dock (at

the southeast corner of Lot 16 and northeast corner of Lot 17) as a result of the road easement. On January 18, 2001,

DEP gave the Lays notice of DEP's intent to revoke both consents of use (for the 58 and 114 square-foot docks).

11. DEP takes the position not only that it did not have the benefit of the boundary survey in either application for

exemption and consent of use but also that it accepted at face value the representations in the applications that the Lays

were riparian owners where they proposed to build their dock. Actually, the Lays' applications did not contain explicit

representations to riparian ownership. But they did state that the Lays owned "the property described," or had "legal

authority to allow access to the property," and did list only "Florida Department of Parks and Recreation" as the only

adjoining property owner. In addition, they implicitly represented entitlement to the exemptions and consent of use

applied for.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

12. Since DEP seeks revocation of exemptions and consents of use issued to the Lays, DEP has the burden to

Page 12: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

prove legal grounds for revocation by preponderance of the evidence. See Balino v. Dept. of Health & Rehabilitative

Servs., 348 So. 2d 349 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977).

13. DEP cites no statutory or even rule authority for revocation of a consent of use issued under Rules Chapter

18-21. (Rule citations are to the current Florida Administrative Code. Statute citations are to sections of the 2000

(Fla. 1st DCA 1983).

14. DEP's PRO implies that Rule 62-343.140(1) states grounds for revocation of the Lays' consents of use. It

provides: "The Department shall revoke or suspend a permit when necessary to protect the public health, safety or

welfare." But Rules Chapter 62-343 applies to environmental resource permits, not to consents of use of sovereign

submerged lands. Although (in accordance with Sections 373.427 and 253.77(2) and Rules 62-110.106 and 62-312.065)

DEP combined the processing and review of applications for both exemptions under Rules Chapter 62-343 and consents

of use under Rules Chapter 18-21, this was done for administrative convenience and efficiency. It did not make

exemption rules apply to consent of use applications (or vice versa).

15. Assuming Rule 62-343.140(1) applied and established the grounds for revocation of consents of use, DEP

failed to prove that revocation of the Lays' consents of use is "necessary to protect the public health, safety or welfare."

16. In DEP v. Brotherton and Sportsman's Lodge Development Corp., DEP OGC Case No. 96-2581, DOAH

Case No. 96-6070 1997 WL 594059, (Fla. Dept. Env. Prot. 1997), DEP addressed the authority of an agency to modify

final orders under somewhat analogous circumstances. There, DEP's predecessor agency, the Department of

Environmental Regulation (DER), issued Brotherton an exemption to repair a dock. Brotherton claimed ownership based

on a warranty deed to a condominium unit, together with an undivided share in the common elements of the

Condominium, including "items of personal property . . . including the private dock located thereon." In giving this

warranty deed, Brotherton's seller relied on a letter from the seller's predecessor in title that "[y]our boat dock will remain

permanently assigned to your unit as a limited common element reserved for use by your unit" in consideration of

execution of amended Condominium documents. In exempting the dock, DER notified Brotherton that "the exemption

determination may be revoked 'if the basis for the exemption is determined to be materially incorrect.'" Id. at page 2.

When the effectiveness of the conveyance of the dock to Brotherton was questioned, DEP sent Brotherton a letter

revoking Brotherton's exemption. But in the Final Order, DEP rejected the letter based on the doctrine of "administrative

finality."

Page 13: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

17. In the Brotherton Final Order, DEP stated at pages 4-5:

In the landmark case of Peoples Gas System, Inc. v. Mason, 187 So.2d 335 (Fla. 1966), the Florida Supreme Court recognized that administrative agencies have inherent authority to modify prior final orders still under their control where it is demonstrated that such modification "is necessary in the public interest because of changed circumstances." Id. at 339. Nevertheless, in the Peoples Gas opinion, the court cited a line of cases holding that this inherent authority of an administrative agency to modify a prior final order is a limited one and concluded that:

The effect of these decisions is that orders of administrative agencies must eventually pass out of the agency's control and become final and no longer subject to modification. This rule assures that there will be a terminal point at which the parties and the public may rely on a decision of such an agency as being final and dispositive of the rights and issues involved therein. This is, of course, the same rule that governs the finality of courts. It is as essential with respect to orders of administrative bodies as with those of courts.

Id. at 339. The court concluded in Peoples Gas that an attempted modification by the Public Service Commission of a final order four years after it was entered was improper based on the rule of finality of administrative orders. This rule of "administrative finality" was later reaffirmed in Austin Tupler Trucking, Inc. v. Hawkins, 377 So.2d 679 (Fla. 1979). In the Austin Tupler case, the court held that to allow the Public Service Commission to revisit the issues decided in a final order entered two years earlier would "contravene the sound principles of finality enunciated in People's Gas." [FN9] Id. at 681. In this administrative proceeding, the primary reason given for the Department's attempted revocation of DER's 1993 Letter of Exemption No. 092309393 was that the information submitted by Brotherton in his 1993 application "has been determined to be materially incorrect" in that:

In paragraph 14.A.1. of the application you state that you are the record owner or the record easement holder of the property. The Warranty Deed provided by you does not indicate evidence of the above. (DEP's Exhibit 4)

It is undisputed that Brotherton did represent in his 1993 exemption application form submitted to DER that he was "the record owner ... of the property on which the proposed project is to be undertaken, as described in the attached legal document." It is also undisputed that the attached legal document (copy of an executed and recorded warranty deed) purported to convey to Brotherton fee simple title to Condominium Unit No. 5, together with title to the dock in question as personal property. (DEP Exhibit 3, attachment "A"). The specific nature of the record ownership interest received by Brotherton in the upland property adjacent to the dock, however, is unclear from the face of the warranty deed attached to his application. [FN10] Even assuming that the warranty deed attached to Brotherton's 1993 application did not substantiate that he had sufficient record ownership interest in the dock and adjacent uplands to be entitled to the requested regulatory exemption/consent of use determination, these purported property title defects were readily apparent on the face of this deed. [FN11] Thus, the record in this case does not demonstrate that the Department's attempted revocation of DER's Letter of Exemption No. 092309393 is based on critical newly-discovered evidence not included in Brotherton's 1993 exemption application package. There are no allegations or proof in this proceeding that Brotherton willfully falsified any representations in the application forms and supporting documents filed with DER in 1993. Neither are there any allegations or proof that Brotherton willfully concealed from DER relevant information adverse to his exemption application. If there were allegations and proof in this case of such willful misconduct on the part of Brotherton, this may have been sufficient to support the propriety of the Department's preliminary action in 1996 seeking revocation of DER's 1993 regulatory exemption/consent of use determination. The Department's legal position throughout these proceedings implies that DER

Page 14: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

did not conduct an adequate review of Brotherton's application in 1993 with respect to his consent of use request. The Department's contention suggests that DER either overlooked or misconstrued the provisions of Rule 18-21.004(3)(b), Florida Administrative Code, in granting the consent of use to Brotherton. I decline to rule on the merits of such a proposition based on the "administrative finality" doctrine discussed above.

18. Comparing this case to the Brotherton case, DEP contends essentially that the Lays' applications were

"materially incorrect." While the alleged defects in the applications were not "readily apparent on the face of" the

applications, neither is there any evidence that the Lays "willfully falsified any representations in the application forms and

supporting documents" or "willfully concealed from DEP relevant information adverse to [their] exemption application[s]."

While the facts in this case are not identical to those in Brotherton, it is concluded that the consents of use in this case,

like the exemption in Brotherton, should not be revoked, based on the "administrative finality" doctrine discussed above.

19. Beyond the doctrine of "administrative finality," it is concluded that DEP did not prove that the representations

in the Lays' applications were false. Under Florida law, "in the absence of a contrary showing," conveyance of Lots 16

and 17 included title to the centerline of the road east of the Lays' property, subject to the easement dedicated to Lee

County by platting of the Cayo Costa Subdivision in the early 1910's; and, since the County either did not accept or has

abandoned the road easement, the Lays own to the centerline of the road easement free and clear of any easement. See

Smith v. Horn, 70 Fla. 484, 489, 70 So. 435, 436 (1915); Calvert v. Morgan, 436 So. 2d 314 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983). DEP

did not prove that MHW is to the west of the centerline of the platted road easement at the point of the Lays' proposed

dock.

20. As suggested by Smith v. Horn, it was possible for the conveyance of Lots 16 and 17 from the owner who

platted the Cayo Costa Subdivision to have excluded title to the road easement (or to have retained a reversionary

interest). If so, the Lays would not own to the centerline of the road easement. See Servando Bldg. Co. v. Zimmerman,

91 So. 2d 289, 291-292 (Fla. 1956); Peninsula Point, Inc. v. South Georgia Dairy Co-op, Inc., 251 So. 2d 690, 692-693

(Fla. 1st DCA 1971). But DEP did not prove that the deeds to Lots 16 and 17 included such a provision. For that reason,

DEP did not prove that the Lays do not own to the centerline of the platted road easement and did not prove any

misrepresentations in the Lays' applications for consent of use.

21. Finally, in Bd. Of Trustees of Internal Improvement Trust Fund v. Barnett, 533 So. 2d 1202, 1206-1207 (Fla.

3d DCA 1988), the court approved a lower court conclusion of law rejecting a contention that "rights acquired from the

State in its proprietary capacity may be revoked at any time before the holder changes his position in reliance on the

right." DEP properly has not taken such a position in this case. (Nor did DEP prove that the Lays did not change position

in reliance on the consents of use.)

RECOMMENDATION

Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is

RECOMMENDED that DEP enter a final order: (1) disapproving DEP's notice dated January 18, 2001, of intent

to revoke the Lays' two consents of use; and (2) dismissing this administrative proceeding in which DEP seeks revocation

of its two consents of use.

DONE AND ENTERED this 14th day of August, 2001, in Tallahassee, Leon

County, Florida.

1157, 1160 (11th Cir. 2003).

I.

On December 10, 1969, the Board of County Commissioners of Lee

County, Florida adopted the “Resolution Pertaining to Public Lands

in Cayo Costa Subdivision”, Book 569, page 875 (the Resolution).

The Resolution stated that the Second Revised Plat of the Cayo

Costa Subdivision contained certain designated lot and block areas

and other undesignated areas. The Resolution further noted that

the plat contained certain un-numbered and unlettered areas lying

East of the Easterly tier of blocks in the subdivision and lying

West of the Westerly tier of blocks in the subdivision. The

Resolution stated that Lee County claimed the lands to the east and

west of the tier of blocks as “public lands together with all

accretions thereto” and “does by this Resolution claim all of said

lands and accretions thereto for the use and benefit of the public

for public purposes.” (Doc. #288, p. 9.)

Plaintiff Jorg Busse (plaintiff or Dr. Busse) asserts he is

the current owner of Lot 15A of the Cayo Costa Subdivision and

accretions thereto. (Doc. #288, ¶¶ 1, 2.) Plaintiff describes Lot

15A as being more than approximately 2.5 acres fronting the Gulf of

Mexico with an estimated fair market value of more than $2 million.

(Id. at ¶6.) Plaintiff asserts that the Resolution violates his

property rights in Lot 15A, which includes accretions, under both

federal and state law.

Count 1 sets forth a claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff

alleges that the Resolution deprived him of his riparian rights,

private easements, accreted property and privileges secured by the

United States Constitution. Specifically, plaintiff asserts that

Lee County had no home rule powers or jurisdiction over the

undedicated Cayo Costa Subdivision, and therefore the Resolution

was unenforceable and in violation of the United States

Constitution. (Doc. #288, ¶13.) Plaintiff asserts that defendants

confiscated more than 2.5 acres of his accreted property without

compensation in violation of the Takings Clause of the Fifth

Amendment, the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and

the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment (Id. at

¶14.) Plaintiff asserts that defendants also illegally took more

than 200 acres of private accretions onto Cayo Costa pursuant to

the Resolution, all without compensation. (Id. at ¶15.) Further,

plaintiff asserts that “Defendant State Actors” claimed riparian

rights to Lots 38A and 41A which they denied to plaintiff, thereby

unlawfully discriminating against plaintiff because he is entitled

to equal rights as the State property owner. (Id. at ¶¶ 16, 27.)

Page 23: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-4-

Count 2 alleges an unconstitutional temporary taking under

color of the Resolution. Plaintiff asserts that the Resolution was

never signed, executed or acknowledged and did not meet resolution

and recording requirements, and was therefore not entitled to be

recorded and must be stricken from the public record. (Id. at

¶17.) Plaintiff further alleges that the Cayo Costa Subdivision

was outside of Lee County’s home rule powers, and therefore the

State and County had no powers to adopt resolutions or ordinances,

and therefore the Resolution is unenforceable and ineffectual and

the County capriciously grabbed private accreted land and

easements. (Id. at ¶18.) Plaintiff asserts that defendants took

his accretions onto the riparian gulf front Lot 15A without

authority, justification, due process of law, public notice,

hearing, vote count, or compensation, and that this unauthorized

unconstitutional taking injured plaintiff and destroyed his

property value. (Id. at ¶19.)

Count 3 sets forth a state law claim for trespass. Plaintiff

alleges that since the 1969 Resolution the defendants have asserted

that Lee County is the owner of the Cayo Costa accretions and have

induced and caused the public to intrude onto the private beaches

and other areas on Cayo Costa, injuring plaintiff’s property. (Id.

at ¶¶ 20-21.) Plaintiff asserts that the State cannot exercise

power within the Subdivision east of the mean high water mark of

the Gulf of Mexico and west of the mean high water mark of

Charlotte Harbor. (Id. at ¶22.)

Plaintiff asserts that defendants took his accretions onto the riparian gulf front Lot 15A without authority, justification, due process of law, public notice, hearing, vote count, or compensation, and that this unauthorized unconstitutional taking injured plaintiff and destroyed his property value. (Id. at ¶19.)
Page 24: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-5-

Count 4 alleges a conspiracy to fabricate, fraud and

malfeasance. Plaintiff asserts that the Lee County Property

Appraiser claimed that the Resolution entitled Lee County to

ownership of the accreted property, but the County Appraiser has

admitted that Lee County was not empowered to adopt the Resolution.

(Id. at ¶23.) Plaintiff asserts that the Resolution on its face

did not meet recording or resolution requirements, and that the

County Appraiser had a professional duty to verify the validity of

the sham Resolution under the Uniform Standards of Professional

Appraisal Practice. (Id.) Plaintiff alleges that without evidence

of title, defendants conspired to concoct an un-plated lot, block

and park for the benefit of the State and County. (Id. at ¶24.)

Plaintiff also asserts that defendant denied agricultural

classification to his accreted lot. (Id.) Plaintiff asserts that

defendants destroyed most of his property value, deprived him of

private easements without compensation, and denied equal protection

in a land grab scheme. (Id.) Plaintiff describes the agreement as

being to assist the unconstitutional confiscation of the

accretions. (Id. at ¶25.) Plaintiff also asserts that the County

Appraiser made incompetent valuation reports which were

controverted by other comparable sales data and done in violation

of Federal Appraisal Standards, but defendant continued to slander

plaintiff’s perfect title. (Id. at ¶26.) As a result, plaintiff

received purchase offers far below market value and the County

Appraiser has committed malfeasance and abuse of position. (Id.)

Page 25: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-6-

Count 5 alleges a conspiracy to materially misrepresent and

defraud. Plaintiff asserts that Lee County does not hold title to

the accreted property pursuant to the Resolution, and there has

been no proceedings such as eminent domain or adverse possession.

(Id. at ¶29.) Plaintiff asserts that Lee County’s claims of

ownership of the accretions therefore violated the Fifth Amendment

Takings Clause, and therefore defendants deprived the public of tax

revenues which could have been received from the private accretions

and easements. (Id.) Plaintiff asserts that defendants conspired

to misrepresent the extent of the Army Corps of Engineers’

authority over his lagoon. (Id. at ¶32.)

Count 6 alleges oppression and slander of title by defendant

Peterson for failing to challenge the invalidity of the Resolution

despite his questions about its validity. (Id. at ¶¶ 33-35.)

The Third Amended Complaint asserts the Court has jurisdiction

based on the Civil Rights Act (42 U.S.C. § 1983), 28 U.S.C. § 1343,

Articles 3 and 4 of the United States Constitution, and Amendments

4 and 5 of the United States Constitution (Doc. #288, ¶7), the 1899

Rivers and Harbors Appropriation Act (33 U.S.C. § 403)(id. at ¶8),

the 1862 Homestead Act (id. at ¶9), the federal common law Doctrine

of Accretion and Erosion (id. at ¶10), the Federal Appraisal

Standards, Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (12

U.S.C. §§ 3331-3351), and the Federal Declaratory Judgment Act (28

U.S.C. § 2201)(id. at ¶12).

III.

The Court will first address the federal claims, since these

claims are necessary to provide subject matter jurisdiction. Given

plaintiff’s pro se status, the Court reviews the Third Amended

Complaint liberally.

A. Takings Clause Claims:

A consistent theme which runs through several of plaintiff’s

counts is that the Resolution constitutes an unconstitutional

taking of his property rights in his subdivision Lot 15A on Cayo

Costa island. The legal principles are well-settled, and preclude1

plaintiff’s takings claim.

Plaintiff alleges a violation of the Takings Clause of the

Fifth Amendment, which states in pertinent part “nor shall private

property be taken for public use, without just compensation.” U.S.

CONST. amend. V. The Fifth Amendment is applied to the States

through the Fourteenth Amendment. Penn Cent. Transp. Co. v. New

York City, 438 U.S. 104, 121-23 (1978). The Third Amended

Complaint may also be read to allege a conspiracy to violate the

Takings Clause.

State law defines the parameters of a plaintiff’s property

interest, and whether state law has created a property interest is

a legal question for the court to decide. Morley’s Auto Body, Inc.

Page 27: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-8-

v. Hunter, 70 F.3d 1209, 1212 (11th Cir. 1996). Under Florida law

a riparian or littoral owner owns to the line of the ordinary high

water mark on navigable waters, and the riparian or littoral

property rights include the vested right to receive accretions to

the property. Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust

Fund v. Sand Key Assocs., Ltd., 512 So. 2d 934, 936-37 (Fla. 1987);

Brannon v. Boldt, 958 So. 2d 367, 373 (Fla. 2d DCA 2007). These

rights constitute property, and cannot be taken or destroyed by the

government without just compensation to the owners. Sand Key

Assoc., 512 So. 2d at 936; Lee County v. Kiesel, 705 So. 2d 1013,

1015 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998). “By now it is beyond question that a

permanent physical occupation of private property by the state

constitutes a taking for which a landowner must be compensated.”

New Port Largo, Inc. v. Monroe County, 95 F.3d 1084, 1088 (11th

Cir. 1996)(citing Lucas v. South Carolina Coastal Council, 505 U.S.

1003, 1015 (1992) and Loretto v. Teleprompter Manhattan CATV Corp.,

458 U.S. 419, 434 (1982)).

Thus while plaintiff has adequately alleged a taking of his

property, “a property owner has not suffered a violation of the

Just Compensation Clause until the owner has unsuccessfully

attempted to obtain just compensation through the procedures

provided by the State for obtaining such compensation . . .”

Williamson County Regional Planning Comm’n v. Hamilton Bank, 473

U.S. 172, 195 (1972). “Williamson County boils down to the rule

that state courts always have a first shot at adjudicating a

Page 28: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-9-

takings dispute because a federal constitutional claim is not ripe

until the state has denied the would-be plaintiff’s compensation

for a putative taking, including by unfavorable judgment in a state

court proceeding.” Agripost, LLC v. Miami-Dade County, Fla.,

F.3d , 2008 WL 1790434 (11th Cir. 2008). Without having

pursued such available state court remedies, a plaintiff’s Takings

Clause claim is not ripe and therefore a federal district court

lacks jurisdiction to consider it. Williamson County, 473 U.S. at

195; Watson Constr. Co. v. City of Gainsville, 244 Fed. Appx. 274,

277 (11th Cir. 2007); Garbo, Inc. v. City of Key West, Fla., 162

Fed. Appx. 905 (11th Cir. 2006). It has been clear since at least

1990 that Florida law provides a remedy of an inverse or reverse

condemnation suit. Joint Ventures, Inc. v. Department of Transp.,

563 So. 2d 622, 624 (Fla. 1990); Tari v. Collier County, 56 F.3d

1533, 1537 n.12 (11th Cir. 1995); Reahard v. Lee County, 30 F.3d

1412, 1417 (11th Cir. 1994). Additionally, plaintiff could have

pursued an state action for declaratory judgment under FLA. STAT. §

86.011, a suit to quiet title, Trustees of Internal Imp. Fund of

State of Florida v. Toffel, 145 So. 2d 737 (Fla. 2d DCA 1962), or

a suit in ejectment if the matter is viewed as a boundary dispute.

Petryni v. Denton, 807 So. 2d 697, 699 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002).

The Third Amended Complaint does not allege that plaintiff

pursued any state relief. Indeed, plaintiff has never suggested

that he has taken any action in state court to quiet title or

receive damages under an inverse or reverse condemnation claim.

Since there is no showing of federal jurisdiction as to the Takings

Clause claim, the Taking Clause claims and any conspiracy to

violate the Takings Clause in any count will be dismissed without

prejudice.

B. Substantive Due Process Claim:

A liberal reading of the Third Amended Complaint might suggest

that plaintiff also frames the alleged taking of his property

rights as a substantive due process claim under the Fourteenth

Amendment. The Eleventh Circuit has held, however, that there is

no independent substantive due process taking cause of action.

Villas of Lake Jackson, Ltd. v. Leon County, 121 F.3d 610, 612-14

(11th Cir. 1997). Additionally, substantive due process protects

only fundamental rights, that is, those rights which are implicit

in the concept of ordered liberty. Such rights are created by the

Constitution, and do not include property rights. Greenbriar

Village, LLC v. Mountain Brook City, 345 F.3d 1258, 1262 (11th Cir.

2003). Merely asserting that the government’s actions were

arbitrary and irrational does not bring the matter within the

protection of the substantive due process provision. Greenbriar

Village, 345 F.3d at 1263-64. Therefore, those portions of counts

in the Third Amended Complaint which attempt to assert a

substantive due process takings claim or conspiracy will be

dismissed.

Additionally, substantive due process protects only fundamental rights, that is, those rights which are implicit in the concept of ordered liberty. Such rights are created by the Constitution, and do not include property rights.

C. Procedural Due Process Claim:

Plaintiff’s counts may also attempt to state a procedural due

process claim. For example, plaintiff asserts that Lee County had

no home rule powers or jurisdiction over the undedicated Cayo Costa

subdivision (Doc. #288, ¶¶ 13, 18, 23), that the Resolution was

never signed, executed or acknowledged and did not meet resolution

and recording requirements (id. at ¶¶ 17, 23), and that the taking

was without authority, justification, due process, public notice,

hearing, vote count, or compensation (id. at ¶19).

“Procedural due process requires notice and an opportunity to

be heard before any government deprivation of a property interest.”

Zipperer v. City of Fort Myers, 41 F.3d 619, 623 (11th Cir. 1995).

Not all government actions, however, are subject to a procedural

due process claim. The County’s action in passing the Resolution

constituted a legislative act, and therefore plaintiff cannot state

a procedural due process claim. 75 Acres, LLC v. Miami-Dade

County, Fla., 338 F.3d 1288, 1294 (11th Cir. 2003). Plaintiff

asserted that the Resolution effecting the taking of more than 200

acres other than his 2.5 acres. This is sufficient to constitute

a legislative act. See, e.g., Bi-Metallic Inv. Co. v. State Bd. of

Equalization, 239 U.S. 441, 445 (1915)(noting that it is

impractical to give every one a voice when a legislative act

applies to more than a few people). Additionally, even if not a

legislative act, a procedural due process claims does not exist

merely because state mandated procedures were not followed. First

Assembly of God of Naples, Florida, Inc. v. Collier County, Fla.,

20 F.3d 419, 422 (11th Cir. 1994). In this regard, some of the

allegations in the Third Amended Complaint are contradicted by the

Resolution which is attached to it. The copy of the Resolution

attached to the Third Amended Complaint establishes that it was

signed, executed, and duly recorded in the public records, and

plaintiff will not be allowed to assert otherwise. The remaining

claimed defects are arguments concerning state law which do not

arise to a constitutional level. Finally, plaintiff fails to state

a procedural due process claim because he has failed to allege that

Florida law provided him with an inadequate post-deprivation

remedy, Tinney v. Shores, 77 F.3d 378, 382 (11th Cir. 1996), and as

discussed above it is clear that Florida does provide adequate

post-deprivation remedies. Therefore, any claim founded on

procedural due process will be dismissed.

D. Equal Protection Claim:

Plaintiff also alleges that the Resolution violated his equal

protection rights. “To properly plead an equal protection claim,

a plaintiff need only allege that through state action, similarly

situated persons have been treated disparately.” Boyd v. Peet, 249

Fed. Appx. 155, 158 (11th Cir. 2007)(citation omitted). See also

Executive 100, Inc. v. Martin County, 922 F.2d 1536, 1552 (11th

Cir. 1991). The Third Amended Complaint does not identify any

similarly situated person with whom plaintiff can be compared. The

WINNER 2
The copy of the Resolution attached to the Third Amended Complaint establishes that it was signed, executed, and duly recorded in the public records, and plaintiff will not be allowed to assert otherwise.
Page 32: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-13-

Third Amended Complaint states that defendants have taken over 200

acres pursuant to the Resolution, far in excess of his 2.5 acres.

The only assertion of disparate treatment is for those lots owned

by government, which plaintiff alleges did not have their rights

taken. However, a private owner such as plaintiff can not be

compared to a public owner such as a government unit. Therefore,

no equal protection claim is stated, and such claims will be

dismissed without prejudice.

E. Other Bases of Federal Jurisdiction:

Having found no federal claim set forth in the Third Amended

Complaint, the Court now examines the other purported bases of

federal jurisdiction.

Article III of the Constitution sets the outer boundaries of

the federal court jurisdiction, but vests Congress with the

discretion to determine whether and to what extent that power may

be exercised by lower federal courts. Therefore, lower federal

courts are empowered to hear only cases for which there has been a

congressional grant of jurisdiction. Morrison v. Allstate

Indemnity Co., 228 F.3d 1255, 1260-61 (11th Cir. 2000). Therefore

Article III does not provide any additional basis of federal

jurisdiction. Additionally, plaintiff’s reliance on Article IV of

the Constitution is misplaced because Article IV does not address

the jurisdiction of a federal court.

Plaintiff cites 28 U.S.C. § 1343 as a basis for federal

jurisdiction. Section 1343 sets forth the jurisdiction of district

Page 33: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-14-

courts for certain civil rights actions, but does not itself create

a private right of action. Albra v. City of Fort Lauderdale, 232

Fed. Appx. 885, 892 (11th Cir. 2007). Since none of plaintiff’s

federal civil rights claims are properly before the court, § 1343

is not a basis for jurisdiction over the remaining state law

claims.

Plaintiff’s reliance on the 1899 Rivers and Harbors

Appropriation Act, 33 U.S.C. § 403 is misplaced. Section 403

relates to the creation of an obstruction not authorized by

Congress, and simply not relevant to any of the claims in this

case. The 1862 Homestead Act, 43 U.S.C. §§ 161-64, cannot form

basis for jurisdiction because it was repealed in 1976. Assuming

there is a federal common law Doctrine of Accretion and Erosion, it

cannot provide a jurisdictional basis in federal court. The

Federal Appraisal Standards, Uniform Standards of Professional

Appraisal Practice, 12 U.S.C. § 3331-3351, also do not create

federal jurisdiction. These standards relate to real estate

appraisals utilized in connection with federally related

transactions, 12 U.S.C. § 1331, and no such transaction was

involved in this case. Additionally, in Florida the county

property appraiser is a constitutionally created office whose

appraisals are carried out pursuant to state statute, FLA. STAT. §

193.011 as well as professional appraisal standards established by

the International Association of Assessing Officers and the

Page 34: Crooked Judge John E Steele Caught With His Pants Down and on Fire (1) 27470430

-15-

Appraisal Institute. Parrish v. Nikolits, 86 F.3d 1088, 1091 n.2

(11th Cir. 1996).

Therefore, the Court finds no other basis of federal

jurisdiction has been plead in the Third Amended Complaint.

F. Remaining State Law Claims:

The remaining possible claims in the Third Amended Complaint

are all state law claims. Read liberally, the Third Amended

Complaint may be read to allege a claim to invalidate the

Resolution for alleged state-law procedural defects, a state law

claim of trespass, a state law claim of conspiracy to misrepresent,

a state law claim of fraud, state law claims of malfeasance, a

state law claim of oppression, and a state law claim of slander of

title. Even assuming these are properly pled, pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3) the Court would exercise its discretion and

decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the state

claims. Raney v. Allstate Ins. Co., 370 F.3d 1086, 1088-89 (11th

Cir. 2004)(encouraging district courts to dismiss state claims

where all claims which provided original jurisdiction have been

dismissed.) The dismissal of the state claims will be without

prejudice. Crosby v. Paulk, 187 F.3d 1339, 1352 (11th Cir. 1999).

Having found that this Court lacks subject matter

jurisdiction, and will not retain supplemental jurisdiction, the

Court need not address the issues raised in the remaining

defendants’ motions to dismiss.

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

1. Defendant Property Appraiser’s Motion to Dismiss

Plaintiff’s Third Amended Complaint (Doc. #303) is GRANTED to the

prejudice as to all defendants and all claims. The Clerk shall
