   69         Section 1. Paragraph (i) of subsection (2), paragraph (a)
   70  of subsection (4), subsections (6) and (8), and paragraph (a) of
   71  subsection (10) of section 775.21, Florida Statutes, are amended
   72  to read:
   73         775.21 The Florida Sexual Predators Act.—
   74         (2) DEFINITIONS.—As used in this section, the term:

   84  using the Internet.

 1052  may otherwise demonstrate why the petition should be denied. The
 1053  court shall rule on the petition and, if the court determines
 1054  the person meets the criteria in subsection (1) and removal of
 1055  the registration requirement will not conflict with federal law,
 1056  it may grant the petition and order the removal of the
 1057  registration requirement. If the court denies the petition, the
 1058  person is not authorized under this section to file any further
 1059  petition for removal of the registration requirement.

 1064  827.071, or s. 847.0135(5), or a similar offense in another
 1065  jurisdiction, the registration requirement will not apply to the
 1066  person and the department shall remove all information about the
 1067  person from the public registry of sexual offenders and sexual
 1068  predators maintained by the department. However, the removal of
 1069  this information from the public registry does not mean that the

 1071  criminal history or record that is otherwise available as a
 1072  public record.
