Settled via consent agreement; paid civil penalty of $400. Fine did not appear at the hearing; his attorney negotiated the agreement.
A complaint filed January 12, 2021 alleged Fine accepted campaign contributions from Publix that exceeded legal limits during the 2020 campaign cycle. He did not return the excess contributions until after the election. The Florida Elections Commission found him guilty of a first-degree misdemeanor violation under §106.19(1)(a). His attorney negotiated a consent agreement resulting in a $400 civil penalty in lieu of further prosecution.
resolvedFlorida Commission on Ethics: Probable Cause Finding for Abuse of Position (Jenkins Feud)
ethics-violation · 2023-04-26 · Florida Commission on Ethics · Probable cause found on all counts in April 2023 — that Fine abused his position for disproportionate benefit and misused his position by threatening to withdraw state funding over a personal feud with Brevard County School Board member Jennifer Jenkins. A state administrative law judge relinquished jurisdiction in May 2024, returning the case to the Commission for a rare do-over hearing. The Commission dismissed the case on July 26, 2024, citing lack of legal sufficiency, without making findings on the factual merits.
Brevard County School Board member Jennifer Jenkins filed an ethics complaint alleging Fine threatened to withhold state funding from a city and encouraged a councilmember to publicly attack Jenkins in connection with a Special Olympics fundraiser dispute. The Florida Commission on Ethics found probable cause on all counts in April 2023. After a convoluted administrative law process, the Commission dismissed the case in July 2024 on legal sufficiency grounds, making no determination on the underlying facts.
resolvedContempt of Court — Brevard County Circuit Court (Vacated on Appeal)
criminal-other · 2024-08-19 · Brevard County Circuit Court (Judge Scott Blaue); Fifth District Court of Appeal · Judge Blaue held Fine in contempt in October 2024 for making obscene gestures (middle finger, mouthing profanity) and wearing a campaign T-shirt during a video hearing on August 19, 2024 — the hearing arose from a lawsuit by Robert Burns challenging Fine's placement on the Brevard Republican Executive Committee ballot. Fine was ordered to complete an eight-hour in-person anger management course within 45 days. Fine appealed; on June 19, 2026, the Fifth District Court of Appeal vacated the contempt order on the sole procedural ground that the trial court improperly denied a recess to allow Fine's counsel to prepare a written disqualification motion, without reaching the merits of Fine's conduct.
During an August 19, 2024 Teams video hearing in which Robert Burns challenged Fine's ballot eligibility, Fine was caught on camera making obscene gestures and mouthing profanity for over 33 minutes and wearing a campaign T-shirt. Judge Blaue held him in contempt in October 2024 and ordered anger management training. Fine appealed; the Fifth DCA vacated the order in June 2026 on a procedural defect (denial of recess for disqualification motion), explicitly declining to rule on whether Fine's conduct warranted contempt.
resolvedCivil Contempt of Court: Obscene Gestures During Video Hearing (Burns v. Fine)
criminal-other · 2024-08-19 · Brevard County Court, Judge Scott Blaue · Civil contempt found; ordered to complete 8-hour anger management course; Fine appealed
On October 1, 2024, Brevard County Judge Scott Blaue held then-State Rep. Randy Fine in civil contempt of court for misconduct during a video hearing on August 19, 2024. The underlying case involved a lawsuit by Robert Burns challenging Fine's inclusion in the Brevard Republican Executive Committee race. During the video hearing, Fine wore a campaign T-shirt, made repeated obscene gestures (including middle-finger gestures and an 'L' hand sign), and mouthed curse words directed at Burns. Judge Blaue found this violated court decorum rules and ordered Fine to complete an eight-hour in-person anger management course within 45 days. Fine denied wrongdoing, called the hearing 'a clown show,' filed impeachment charges against Judge Blaue, and announced his intent to appeal. Fine appealed the contempt ruling; the appeal was docketed in the Florida courts (case 2025-3D24-2174).
