Opinion

Case No. 96-3229.

Opinion filed October 15, 1997.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County; Robert J. Fogan, Judge; L.T. Case No. 95-14137 DL.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Sarah B. Mayer, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and David McPherrin, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


The state failed to timely object when the trial court placed appellee in a drug treatment program as an alternative to imposing a penalty or sentence.

Accordingly, we affirm the trial court's dismissal of the charges. See State v. Upshaw, 648 So.2d 851 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995).

AFFIRMED.

DELL, FARMER and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
