In State Court, civil cases are usually filed in the county where at least one of the parties involved resides. But, criminal cases
are not always filed in the county of residence of the person accused. Criminal law cases are usually filed and tried in the
county, in other words, in the venue, in which the criminal offense charged is alleged to have occured.
There are cases, however, in which the prosecution does
not know the precise physical location where the criminal
offense was allegedly committed.
Pursuant to the Florida Constitution and to Florida Statute, in those types of cases, the person may be charged in two or more counties conjunctively. Then, the acused would have the "privilege" of electing in which of those counties he or she wants the trial to be held and would then present his or her criminal defense in the county selected.

As you know, Oviedo is located in Seminole County, Florida. So if
a crime allegedly took place within the Oviedo city limits, the state
criminal case would usually be filed with the Court in Seminole
County. And naturally, the person accused would defend against
the allegations there, aided of course by his or her criminal defense
lawyer.
Even if the person accused actually resided in another county or another state, this would likely be the case. So the Oviedo residence of the person accused would not revelant to where the criminal case would usually be filed.
This applies to juvenile delinquency or juvenile defense cases and to adult felony and misdemeanor criminal cases.

So, for example, if someone from Oviedo was charged
with a particular offense which was allegedly committed
in Seminole County and Orange County, it would be up
to the person to elect whether to go to trial in Seminole
County or Orange County. Naturally, the State would
still have to prove venue.

The city of Oviedo was named by its first postmaster, Andrew Aulin. Aulin, who was born in Sweden, was an
early settler and shop owner in the Lake Jesup community, part of which became the city of Oviedo.
In 1879, residents of the soon to be named Oviedo area needed an easily accessible post office and Aulin decided to file the requisite paperwork. Aulin wanted a unique name for the post office and wanted a Spanish name that would go with the Spanish name of the state.
He decided to name the post office Oviedo after the University of Oviedo located in northern Spain. Some say Aulin actually visited the University of Oviedo. However, others say he just liked the sound of the Spanish pronunciation of "Oviedo."
Regardless of whether Aulin visited the University of Oviedo or not, the residents kept the Oviedo name, and in 1925 incorporated the city of Oviedo. At that time, Oviedo had roughly 800 residents. Today, the city of Oviedo has over thirty four thousand residents.
