Thomas v. State
Thomas v. State
Opinion of the Court
We have for review Thomas v. State, 933 So.2d 45 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006), based on express and direct conflict with Perkins v. State, 576 So.2d 1810 (Fla. 1991). We have jurisdiction. See art V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.
At the time the Fourth District Court of Appeal issued its decision in Thomas, another case was pending here on review likewise based on express and direct conflict with Perkins. See Hearns v. State, 912 So.2d 377 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005), approved, 961 So.2d 211 (Fla. 2007). We thus stayed proceedings in the present case
We accordingly grant the petition for review in the present case. The decision under review is quashed and this matter is remanded to the Fourth District Court of Appeal for reconsideration upon application of this Court’s decision in Hearns.
It is so ordered.
