Opinion

No. 74612.

April 26, 1990.

Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Certified Great Public Importance; Second District — Case No. 88-02633 (Polk County).

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Andrea Steffen, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for petitioner.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and David R. Gemmer, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for respondent.


In Bennett v. State, 546 So.2d 1192, 1192 (Fla.2d DCA 1989), the district court certified the following question as being of great public interest: "Does section 893.13(1)(e), Florida Statutes (1987), violate the one subject rule of article III, section 6 of the Florida Constitution?" We answered this question in the negative and held the statute to be constitutional in Burch v. State, 558 So.2d 1 (Fla. 1990), and, therefore, approve Bennett.

It is so ordered.

EHRLICH, C.J., and OVERTON, SHAW, BARKETT, GRIMES and KOGAN, JJ., concur.
