District Court of Appeal of Florida

A motion for rehearing is denied, but a motion to certify questions of great public importance is partially granted and questions regarding: 1) whether charter schools, which are deemed by statute to be public schools, are exempt from special assessments; and 2) if not, whether mandamus can be used to compel a private corporation operating a charter school to use public school board funds to satisfy special assessments.
