790 So. 2d 1187 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2001)

Opinion

Case No. 2D00-2127

Opinion filed July 25, 2001.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County; Daniel Lee Perry, Judge.

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Clark E. Green, Assistant Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Katherine V. Blanco, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.

SALCINES, Judge.

Robert Pirant appeals his convictions for possession of cocaine with intent to sell and possession of cannabis. Trial counsel failed to preserve for appellate review the trial court's denial of the motion to suppress and the denial of the motion for judgment of acquittal. Therefore, we do not decide the merit of these issues. See Pendarvis v. State, 752 So.2d 75, 76-77 (Fla. 2d DCA 2000).

Affirmed.

ALTENBERND, A.C.J., and DANAHY, PAUL W., (SENIOR) JUDGE, Concur.
