Anderson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 3, 2006 · Altenbernd, Canady, Larose
932 So. 2d 321; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 1270; 2006 WL 250270 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Anderson v. State

Opinion of the Court

ALTENBERND, Judge.

Morris K. Anderson appeals the denial of his motion for relief from judgment, filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.540, which challenges his designation as a sexual predator. Although this court recently receded from its prior case law on this issue in King v. State, 911 So.2d 229 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005) (holding that challenges to a sexual predator designation should now be raised through a motion for postconviction relief), the trial court fully addressed Anderson’s claims on the merits, whether considered as a rule 1.540 motion or as a motion for postconviction relief. Accordingly, we affirm the denial of Anderson’s claim.

Affirmed.

CANADY, and LaROSE, JJ., Concur.
