French v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 10, 2006 · Barfield, Lewis, Nortwick
935 So. 2d 629; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 13329; 2006 WL 2285745 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

French v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In this direct criminal appeal, the appellant challenges convictions for various offenses, including two counts of resisting an officer with violence as proscribed by section 843.01, Florida Statutes. Only one conviction is permitted in connection with this single episode. Wallace v. State, 724 So.2d 1176 (Fla. 1998). We, therefore, reverse and remand with instructions that the conviction for one of the counts for resisting an officer with violence be vacated. The remaining convictions are affirmed.

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; REMANDED.

BARFIELD, VAN NORTWICK, and LEWIS, JJ., concur.
