Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Certified Direct Conflict of Decisions, Third District — Case No. 3D01-1158 (Dade County).
Eric M. Cohen, Miami, Florida, for Petitioner.
Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Michael J. Neimand, Bureau Chief, and Paulette R. Taylor, Assistant Attorney General, Miami, Florida, for Respondent.
H. Scott Fingerhut, Miami, Florida; and Benedict P. Kuehne of Sale Kuehne, P.A., Miami, Florida, for Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers — Miami Chapter, Amicus Curiae.
We originally accepted review of State v. Famiglietti, 817 So.2d 901 (Fla. 3d DCA 2002), in which the Third District Court of Appeal certified direct conflict with the Fourth District Court of Appeal's decision inState v. Pinder, 678 So.2d 410 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996), pursuant to article V, section 3(b)(4) of the Florida Constitution. Upon closer examination, however, we find that jurisdiction was improvidently granted in this case. Therefore, we dismiss review of this cause.
It is so ordered.
ANSTEAD, C.J., WELLS, PARIENTE, QUINCE, and CANTERO, JJ., and SHAW, Senior Justice, concur.
LEWIS, J., dissents.
