Warren v. State
Opinion of the Court
We have for review Warren v. State, 601 So.2d 1252 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992), in which the district court affirmed Warren’s sentence as a habitual violent felony offender and certified the following question as being of great public importance:
Is section 775.084(l)(b), the habitual violent felony offender statute, unconstitutional because: (1) it is inequitable and subject to arbitrary and capricious application in violation of article I, section 9 of the Florida Constitution and the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, and (2) it violates the constitutional prohibitions against double jeopardy?
Id. at 1253.
It is so ordered.
. We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const.
