State v. Blackledge
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 6, 2002 · Hazouri, Polen, Warner
807 So. 2d 151; 2002 Fla. App. LEXIS 2962; 2002 WL 181053 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Blackledge

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The state seeks certiorari review of the trial court’s order which in effect precludes the state from proceeding under an alternative theory of DUI manslaughter. The theory at issue is driving with an unlawful blood alcohol level (UBAL).

We grant the petition based on the reasoning set forth in this court’s recent decision in Dodge v. State, 805 So.2d 990 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001). The case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with Dodge.

POLEN, C.J., WARNER and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
