790 So. 2d 433 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2000)

Opinion

No. 1D98-3306

Opinion filed March 1, 2000.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Suwannee County, Thomas Kennon, Judge.

Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender and Jamie Spivey, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General and Veronica S. McCrackin, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


Appellant's convictions for aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer with a deadly weapon, resisting an officer with violence, and possession of a controlled substance are affirmed. 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 his challenges and found each without merit.See Chambers v. State, 25 Fla. L. Weekly D387 (Fla. 1st DCA February 11, 2000). However, we certify the same question previously certified in Woods v. State, 740 So.2d 20 (Fla. 1st DCA), rev. granted, 740 So.2d 529 (Fla. 1999).

AFFIRMED.

ALLEN, WOLF AND VAN NORTWICK, JJ., CONCUR.
