State v. Sheffield
Supreme Court of Florida
State v. Sheffield, 668 So. 2d 600 (Fla. 1996)
21 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 85; 1996 Fla. LEXIS 140; 1996 WL 75330
Anstead, Grimes, Harding, Kogan, Overton, Shaw, Wells
State v. Sheffield
Opinion of the Court
We have for review a decision of the Second District Court of Appeal passing upon a question certified to be of great public importance:
DOES THE SUPREME COURT’S PROMULGATION OF THE FORM “ORDER OF PROBATION” IN FLORIDA RULE OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE 3.986 CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE TO PROBATIONERS OF CONDITIONS 1-11 SUCH THAT ORAL PRONOUNCEMENT OF THESE CONDITIONS BY THE TRIAL COURT IS UNNECESSARY?
See Sheffield v. State, 651 So.2d 160, 161 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995). We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const. Since we have already answered the identical question in the affirmative in State v. Hart, 668 So.2d 589 (Fla. 1996), we quash the district court decision and remand to the district court for proceedings consistent with Hart.
It is so ordered.
