Bufford v. State

Supreme Court of Florida
Jul 23, 1981
401 So. 2d 1321 (Fla. 1981)

Opinion

No. 59426.

July 23, 1981.

Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Direct Conflict of Decisions,

Fifth District — Case No. 78-2466/T4-293

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Allen J. DeWeese, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for petitioner.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Evelyn D. Golden, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for respondent.


Under Pressley v. Wainwright, 367 So.2d 222 (Fla. 1979), we belatedly accepted jurisdiction in this cause because of the express conflict contained in the Fifth District Court of Appeal opinion reported at 383 So.2d 928 (Fla. 5th DCA 1980). We resolved the conflict in Butterworth v. Fluellen, 389 So.2d 968 (Fla. 1980), decided subsequent to the district court opinion. The petition for review is therefore discharged.

No motion for rehearing will be entertained.

It is so ordered.

SUNDBERG, C.J., and ADKINS, BOYD, OVERTON, ENGLAND, ALDERMAN and McDONALD, JJ., concur.
