Williams v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the judgment and guideline departure sentence in this case on the authority of Williams v. State, 568 So.2d 1276 (Fla.2d DCA 1990). As in Williams, we certify to the Florida Supreme Court the following question of great public importance:

DOES A SECOND VIOLATION OF PROBATION CONSTITUTE A VALID BASIS FOR A DEPARTURE SENTENCE BEYOND THE ONE-CELL DEPARTURE PROVIDED IN THE SENTENCING GUIDELINES?
SCHOONOVER, C.J., and CAMPBELL and FRANK, JJ., concur.
