State v. Gomez

State v. Gomez
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided September 21, 1982 · Genson, Jor, Nesbitt, Schwartz
419 So. 2d 422; 1982 Fla. App. LEXIS 21173 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Gomez

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We find no abuse of the trial court’s discretion in dismissing the information with prejudice because, as it found, the state’s inexcusably tardy and inadequate compliance with an order requiring a bill of particulars had adversely affected the defendant’s ability to prepare for trial. See and compare, Leeman v. State, 357 So.2d 703 (Fla. 1978) (trial court found no prejudice in non-compliance with order).

Affirmed.
