Doyle v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 6, 2002 · Gross, Gunther, Hazouri
806 So. 2d 622; 2002 Fla. App. LEXIS 2927; 2002 WL 181135 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Doyle v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the order summarily denying appellant’s motions for post-conviction relief, seeking to vacate his conviction based on the alleged involuntariness of his plea. See Stretcher v. State, 803 So.2d 813 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001). As in Stretcher, we certify as a question of great public importance the same question certified in Major v. State, 790 So.2d 550, 553 (Fla. 3d DCA 2001):

WHETHER THE TRIAL COURT OR COUNSEL HAVE A DUTY TO ADVISE A DEFENDANT THAT HIS PLEA IN A PENDING CASE MAY HAVE SENTENCE ENHANCING CONSEQUENCES IF THE DEFENDANT COMMITS A NEW CRIME IN THE FUTURE?

GUNTHER, GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
