Opinion
No. 1D03-2155.
July 14, 2004. Rehearing Denied August 19, 2004.
An appeal from an order from the circuit court for Alachua County. Vernon C. Mize, Jr., Senior Judge.
Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender, and Janice G. Scott, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, Attorneys for Appellant.
Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, and Karen M. Holland, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, Attorneys for Appellee.
We affirm both issues on appeal. As to the first issue, the jury instructions given in the instant case distinguish it from the case relied on by Appellant, State v. Estevez, 753 So.2d 1 (Fla. 1999). As to the second issue, this argument has previously been rejected by this Court. See Pitts v. State, 855 So.2d 681 (Fla. 1st DCA 2003); State v. Franklin, 836 So.2d 1112 (Fla. 3d DCA 2003), review granted 854 So.2d 659 (Fla. 2003). We certify conflict with Taylor v. State, 818 So.2d 544 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002), review dismissed 821 So.2d 302 (Fla. 2002).
AFFIRMED.
BOOTH, WEBSTER and DAVIS, JJ., concur.
