Aids And The Perception Of Aids As Handicaps Under Florida Law, Robert Craig Waters
Aids And The Perception Of Aids As Handicaps Under Florida Law, Robert Craig Waters
Florida State University Law Review
Until 1989, many questions remained unanswered about the extent of protection afforded by Florida's numerous handicap discrimination laws for those with symptomless infection of the AIDS virus or those perceived as having such an infection. The 1989 Florida Legislature settled these questions by declaring that having the infection and being perceived as infected fall within the protection of these statutes. As a rationale, the Legislature adopted an express statement of intent that found all forms of AIDS-related discrimination irrational, scientifically unfounded, and detrimental to society as a whole. This Article explores the sweeping implications of these legislative determinations.

Rights And Duties Of Vendors And Government Agencies Under Florida's New Public Contracting Law, David L. Powell
Florida State University Law Review
Until recently, vendors convicted of "bid-rigging," crimes could continue to receive public contracts with state and local agencies. In 1989, the Legislature enacted legislation to exclude convicted vendors from the public procurement process. In this Article, the author examines how the standards and procedures of the new law safeguard the public treasury while protecting vendors from unfair interference in their transactions with state and local agencies.
