An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County, Michael Genden, Judge.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Bruce A. Rosenthal, Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General and Consuelo Maingot, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and GODERICH and FLETCHER, JJ.


We find no error in the trial court's disallowance of the black defendant's challenge to a Hispanic juror, Jackson v. State, 676 So.2d 1033 (Fla. 3d DCA 1996), or its allowance of a prosecution challenge to a black juror who had previously been arrested and jailed. Martinez v. State, 664 So.2d 1034 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995); Wilkins v. State, 659 So.2d 1273 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995); Miller v. State, 605 So.2d 492 (Fla. 3d DCA 1992), review denied, 613 So.2d 7 (Fla. 1993); Knight v. State, 559 So.2d 327 (Fla. 1st DCA 1990), review denied, 574 So.2d 141 (Fla. 1990).

Affirmed.
