Motes v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District
Mar 27, 2000
765 So. 2d 75 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2000)

Opinion

No. 1D98-3207

Opinion filed March 27, 2000.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Duval County, L. Haldane Taylor, Judge.

Nancy Daniels, Public Defender, and P. Douglas Brinkmeyer, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Karla D. Ellis, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


Appellant was sentenced as a prison releasee reoffender, and he has raised several arguments that the Prison Releasee Reoffender Punishment Act, section 775.082(8), Florida Statutes (1997), is unconstitutional. We have previously addressed each of these challenges and found them to be without merit. See Chambers v. State, 25 Fla. L. Weekly D387 (Fla. 1st DCA Feb. 11, 2000). However, we certify the same question previously certified in Woods v. State, 740 So.2d 20 (Fla. 1st DCA), review granted, 740 So.2d 529 (Fla. 1999).

AFFIRMED.

MINER, BENTON, and BROWNING, JJ., CONCUR.
