Opinion

No. 98-57.

November 12, 1998.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County, J.C. Henderson, Judge.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Howard K. Blumberg, Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General and Dominique T. Suite-Brown, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

Before GREEN, FLETCHER and SHEVIN, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

Viewing the evidence adduced below in the light most favorable to the state, we conclude that it was sufficient to set forth a prima facie case for the offense of resisting, obstructing or opposing an officer without violence. See § 843.02, Fla. Stat. (1997); Perry v. State, 593 So.2d 1165, 1166 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992). For that reason, we affirm the trial court's denial of the juvenile's motion for judgment of acquittal on this count.

Affirmed.
