| The concept of checks and balances is one of the major political doctrines that form the very foundation of the American system of government. Provisions of the Florida Constitution that have governed the people for over 150 years established the Clerk of the Circuit Court as an elected public trustee and set in place at the county level a system of checks and balances. The office of the Clerk is a complex organization that performs a wide range of record keeping, information management and financial management in the judicial system and county government. It has been calculated that the Clerk's office performs 926 different constitutional and statutory functions or duties. Some of those duties include: Responsibilites
