So she has a bottle that was not a refill

if that were the case, she'd be charged with possession of a controlled substance...

any Florida attorney FReeper know what constitutes "prescription fraud?"

I think it could be interpreted as the same thing but I'm not an attorney.

Just trying to refill a prescription that doesn't have refill on it is not illegal, even if it is a narcotic. We'd just call the doctor to get another refill, if the medication in question wasn't a schedule 2 drug, such as Percodan. The only time we'd call the police was with a written forged prescription. The most common fraud we would see was that people would add refills on the script itself before presenting it to be filled for the first time.
