Opinion
No. 84804.
May 11, 1995. Rehearing Denied September 19, 1995.
Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Certified Great Public Importance; First District — No. 93-2352 (Leon County).
Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender and Raymond Dix, Asst. Public Defender, Tallahassee, for petitioner.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen. and Michael J. Neimand, Asst. Atty. Gen., and Parker D. Thomson and Carol A. Licko, Sp. Asst. Attys. Gen., Miami, for respondent.
We have for review Salatino v. State, 644 So.2d 1035 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994), wherein the district court upheld the constitutionality of the anti-stalking statute, section 784.048, Florida Statutes (Supp. 1992), and certified:
Is section 784.048, Florida Statutes (Supp. 1992), facially unconstitutional as vague and overbroad?
We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const.
We recently upheld the constitutionality of the anti-stalking statute. See Bouters v. State, 659 So.2d 235 (Fla. 1995). Accordingly we approve Salatino on this issue.
It is so ordered.
GRIMES, C.J., and OVERTON, HARDING, WELLS and ANSTEAD, JJ., concur.
KOGAN, J., concurs specially with an opinion.
Subject to the reservations that I stated in Bouters v. State, 659 So.2d 235 (Fla. 1995) (Kogan, J., specially concurring), I concur with the majority.
