Other in Bradford County, Florida
48 cases (2025) · Bradford County courts
Updated July 2026 · 2025 data
In 2025, Bradford County achieved a 27.1% dismissal rate for "other" felony charges—more than three times the statewide average of 8.2%. However, only 6.2% received adjudication withheld compared to the 18% statewide average, and zero diversion cases meant those not dismissed proceeded to conviction. This suggests aggressive case screening but limited alternatives for those prosecuted.
Convicted defendants faced severe sentences: median 502 days (over 16 months) and average 1,092 days (over three years). About 63% experienced confinement, with 33.3% in prison and 29.2% in jail, the highest prison rate among counties reviewed. Fewer than 3% had private attorneys and 22.9% had public defenders, indicating significant representation gaps.
Before Court: State Attorney Decisions
Not every Other charge in Bradford County makes it in front of a judge. Of 172 prosecutor decisions on Other charges (2023-2025), the State Attorney declined to file, dropped, or dismissed 17.4% — below the 43.1% statewide rate. These decisions happen early in a case, before trial.
