Gress v. State

Gress v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 20, 2012 · Griffin, Sawaya, Torpy
85 So. 3d 1185; 2012 WL 1364997; 2012 Fla. App. LEXIS 6190 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Gress v. State

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Appellant challenges the judgments and sentences she received for the offenses of culpable negligence and two counts of neglect of a child causing great bodily harm, permanent disfigurement, or permanent disability. The State properly concedes that the conviction for culpable negligence is a double jeopardy violation because it arose from the same criminal episode, involving the same victim, and was a lesser offense subsumed by a greater offense. Accordingly, we reverse the judgment and sentence for culpable negligence. In all other respects, we affirm.

REVERSED IN PART; AFFIRMED IN PART.

GRIFFIN, SAWAYA and TORPY, JJ., concur.
