Opinion

No. 86887.

September 12, 1996.

Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Certified Direct Conflict of Decisions, First District — Case No. 94-3176, Duval County.

James T. Miller of Corse, Bell Miller, P.A., Jacksonville, for Petitioner.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General; James W. Rogers, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Bureau Chief, Criminal Appeals and Giselle Lylen Rivera, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent.


We accepted jurisdiction to review Edwards v. State, 662 So.2d 405 (Fla. 1st DCA 1995), based upon the district court's certification of conflict with the opinion in Quiles v. State, 523 So.2d 1261 (Fla. 2d DCA 1988). However, after hearing oral argument, we concluded that the decision below does not expressly and directly conflict with Quiles. Therefore, we have determined to dismiss the petition.

It is so ordered.

KOGAN, C.J., and OVERTON, SHAW, GRIMES, HARDING, WELLS and ANSTEAD, JJ., concur.
