Florida District Courts of Appeal, 1985

State v. Wilson

State v. Wilson
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 25, 1985 · Booth, Pearson, Ret, Shivers
468 So. 2d 1; 10 Fla. L. Weekly 1051; 1985 Fla. App. LEXIS 13726 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Wilson

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The single point on appeal presented by state is:

The trial court has jurisdiction to revoke the community control status of a defendant sentenced as a youthful offender to a period of confinement followed by a period of community control. Thus, the trial court erred in granting the motion to dismiss the affidavit of violation of probation.

This question has been previously certified to the Supreme Court of Florida as a question of great public interest. See State v. Jones, 467 So.2d 1083 (Fla. 1st DCA 1985).

We note, however, that state may not appeal a final judgment for defendant under the circumstances of this case. See State v. Jones, supra.

Appeal is dismissed.

BOOTH and SHIVERS, JJ., and TILLMAN PEARSON (Ret.), Associate Judge, concur.
