Pridgeon v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 29, 1999 · Allen, Benton, Lawrence
737 So. 2d 636; 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 10050; 1999 WL 551308 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Pridgeon v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant Pridgeon asserts that key evidence should have been suppressed because the affidavit upon which a search warrant was based did not give probable cause for the warrant.

We are unable to reach the merits of Pridgeon’s argument because, although a motion to suppress was filed and a hearing was held on the issue, trial counsel at each of Pridgeon’s trials failed to object contemporaneously to introduction of the evidence *637and thereby failed to preserve the issue for appeal. See Terry v. State, 668 So.2d 954 (Fla. 1996); Davis v. State, 728 So.2d 341 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999); Randall v. State, 718 So.2d 230 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998); Coffee v. State, 699 So.2d 299 (Fla. 2d DCA 1997).

AFFIRMED.
