In re STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES—REPORT 2011-01.

No. SC11-462.

Supreme Court of Florida.

Sept. 8, 2011.

Judge Samantha L. Ward, Chair, Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases, Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, Tampa, FL, for Petitioner.

PER CURIAM.

The Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases (Committee) has submitted a report proposing amendments to a number of standard criminal jury instructions pertaining to fleeing a law enforcement officer and aggravation of a felony. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.

The Committee’s proposals amend the standard criminal jury instructions pertaining to fleeing a law enforcement officer (instructions 28.6-28.85) and aggravation of a felony (instructions 3.3(a)-(c), 3.3(e)-(f)).1

The Committee’s proposals pertaining to fleeing a law enforcement officer were published in the January 15, 2011, edition of The Florida Bar News. The proposed amendments pertaining to the aggravation of a felony were published in the January 1, 2011, edition of The Florida Bar News. No comments were received with respect to either publication. Upon consideration of the proposals, we hereby authorize for *137publication and use the amended instructions, with a minor modification to instruction 3.8(e), Aggravation of a Felony by Wearing a Hood, Mask, or Other Device to Conceal Identity, as discussed below.

The Committee proposes amending standard jury instruction 3.3(e) to include the requisite burden of persuasion, as well as a note that contains a brief commentary and a citation to Wright v. State, 810 So.2d 873 (Fla.2002). We modify the Committee’s proposal by adding the word “personally” to the text of the instruction. Consistent with the Committee’s proposed amendments to instructions 3.3(a) and 3.3(b), the addition of the word clarifies that the aggravating offense must be personally committed by a defendant.

Having considered the Committee’s report, we hereby authorize for publication and use the instructions as they appear in the attached appendix.2 In authorizing the publication and use of these instructions, we express no opinion on their correctness and remind all interested parties that this authorization forecloses neither requesting additional or alternative instructions nor contesting the legal correctness of the instructions. We further caution all interested parties that any comments associated with the instructions reflect only the opinion of the Committee and are not necessarily indicative of the views of this Court as to their correctness or applicability. New language is indicated by underlining and deleted language is indicated by struck-through type. The instructions as set forth in the appendix shall be effective when this opinion becomes final.

It is so ordered.

CANADY, C.J., and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, POLSTON, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur.

If you find only that (defendant) committed (crime charged) but did-not-wear you are not convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that [he] [she] personally wore a hood, mask, or other device that concealed [his] [her] identity, then you should find the defendant guilty only of (crime charged).
