From what I've heard, as long as all sentences, fines, fees, and restitution have been completed or paid, he'd now be able to register to vote. If he's unsure, the best thing to do is call your county Supervisor of Elections. Good luck!

How can I get my rights restored if I’ve been convicted of a felony? The Rules for Executive Clemency were amended 3/9/11, and restoration of civil rights will no longer be granted automatically. Felons who have completed their sentences may seek to have their civil rights restored by submitting an application to the state’s Board of Executive Clemency. Depending on the seriousness of the crime, applicants will be eligible to apply either five OR seven years after completion of their sentences, provided they have been crime-free and arrest-free. The Office of Executive Clemency's website offers a Civil Rights Restoration Search for its database, so you can determine whether or not your rights have been restored. Be sure to search under all variations of your name, including nicknames.   For more information, use the contact information below to reach the Florida Office of Executive Clemency:   The Office of Executive Clemency 4070 Esplanade Way Tallahassee, FL 32399-2450 Phone:
