Lawsuit challenging Florida's system for voting rights restoration and the state's elections police unit. They argue that Florida has failed to inform individuals of their voting eligibility, including whether they have paid all fees and fines as required by state law. The lawsuit also argues that the elections police unit primarily serves to intimidate individuals with prior felony convictions to prevent them from voting.
