State ex rel. Nesselrode v. Piquette
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 9, 1972 · Carroll, Hendry, Pearson
261 So. 2d 545; 1972 Fla. App. LEXIS 6883 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State ex rel. Nesselrode v. Piquette

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The petition filed a suggestion for writ of prohibition in the circuit court. The suggestion was dismissed and this appeal followed. Appellant urges that the circuit court failed to apply the correct rule of law as to when jeopardy attaches when a charge is dismissed in the Metropolitan Court. We hold that the court correctly applied the law set forth in Burnes v. State, 89 Fla. 494, 104 So. 783 (1925).

Affirmed.
