N.J. v. State
N.J. v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant was found guilty of resisting an officer without violence. He argues that the trial court should have dismissed the case because appellant’s actions did not amount to anything other than speech protected under the United States and Florida constitutions. According to the arresting officer, however, while he was in the process of issuing a parking citation to another person, appellant came towards him with his fists clenched and his arms waving until he was about two feet away.
