Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Direct Conflict Fifth District — Case No. 5D99-341 (Volusia County).

We initially accepted review of Jenkins v. State, 747 So.2d 997 (Fla. 5th DCA 1999), on the basis of an alleged express and direct conflict with our decision in State v. Houck, 652 So.2d 359 (Fla. 1995). See art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. Upon further consideration, we find that jurisdiction was improvidently granted in this case. Accordingly, we hereby dismiss review of this cause.

It is so ordered.
