Terms Used In Florida Statutes 110.125

  • agency: means any official, officer, commission, board, authority, council, committee, or department of the executive branch or the judicial branch of state government as defined in chapter 216. See Florida Statutes 110.107
  • Department: means the Department of Management Services. See Florida Statutes 110.107
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts

  • Transfer: means moving an employee from one geographic location of the state to a different geographic location more than 50 miles from the employee's current work location. See Florida Statutes 110.107
The administrative expenses and costs of operating the personnel program established by this chapter shall be paid by the various agencies of the state government, and each such agency shall include in its budget estimates its pro rata share of such cost as determined by the Department of Management Services. To establish an equitable division of the costs, the amount to be paid by each agency shall be determined in such proportion as the service rendered to each agency bears to the total service rendered under the provisions of this chapter. The amounts paid to the Department of Management Services which are attributable to positions within the Senior Management Service and the Selected Professional Service shall be used for the administration of such services, training activities for positions within those services, and the development and implementation of a database of pertinent historical information on exempt positions. Should any state agency become more than 90 days delinquent in payment of this obligation, the department shall certify to the Chief Financial Officer the amount due and the Chief Financial Officer shall transfer the amount due to the department from any debtor agency funds available.
