Opinion

No. 82-142.

October 12, 1982.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Dade County; Murray Goldman, Judge.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Harold T. Fields, Jr., Sp. Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Penny H. Hershoff, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before NESBITT, BASKIN and FERGUSON, JJ.


A trial judge's findings should not be disturbed unless they are unsupported by the evidence. Sireci v. State, 399 So.2d 964 (Fla. 1981). In this court, a trial court's ruling on a Motion to Suppress is clothed with a presumption of correctness, McNamara v. State, 357 So.2d 410 (Fla. 1978), and reasonable inferences favor affirmance of the trial court. See Bova v. State, 392 So.2d 950 (Fla. 4th DCA 1980); Churney v. State, 348 So.2d 395 (Fla. 3d DCA 1977).

Affirmed.
