We have for review Washington v. State, 655 So.2d 239 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995), wherein the court certified conflict with Bell v. State, 624 So.2d 821 (Fla. 2d DCA 1993), review denied, 634 So.2d 622 (Fla. 1994). We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const. We find the two cases distinguishable. We approve Washington.

It is so ordered.

GRIMES, C.J., and OVERTON, KOGAN, WELLS and ANSTEAD, JJ., concur. HARDING, J., concurs in the result.
