Powell v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District
Feb 28, 1996
668 So. 2d 695 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1996)

Opinion

No. 95-1248.

February 28, 1996.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Martin County; John E. Fennelly, Judge.

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Marcy K. Allen, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and John Tiedemann, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


Nathaniel Powell appeals from criminal convictions entered after a nolo contendere plea and argues that the trial court erred in accepting his plea without first inquiring into the defense of intoxication. Our review of the record indicates that no motion to withdraw the nolo contendere plea was ever made. We therefore dismiss the appeal without prejudice to appellant seeking to withdraw his plea or filing a motion for post-conviction relief.

GLICKSTEIN, POLEN and KLEIN, JJ., concur.
