State v. Sanchez
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 15, 1986 · Baskin, Hubbart, Pearson
490 So. 2d 1373; 11 Fla. L. Weekly 1550; 1986 Fla. App. LEXIS 8864 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Sanchez

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Defendant Sanchez filed a Sworn Motion to Dismiss an information charging him with sexual battery. Pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.190(d), the state filed a traverse. The trial court granted defendant’s motion, and the state appeals. We find that disputed issues of fact concerning the existence of a bona fide medical purpose require resolution by the finder of fact. See State v. Fuller, 463 So.2d 1252 (Fla. 5th DCA 1985); State v. Pentecost, 397 So.2d 711 (Fla. 5th DCA 1981); State v. Bryant, 373 So.2d 708 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979); State v. Hires, 372 So.2d 183 (Fla. 2d DCA 1979). The order is therefore reversed, and the cause is remanded for further proceedings.

Reversed and remanded.
