State v. Farrington

Supreme Court of Florida
Feb 22, 1996
668 So. 2d 598 (Fla. 1996)

Opinion

No. 85760.

February 22, 1996.

Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Certified Great Public Importance, Second District — No. 92-03998, Hillsborough County.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Dale E. Tarpley, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Petitioner.

No appearance for Respondent.


We have for review a decision of the Second District Court of Appeal passing upon a question certified to be of great public importance:

DOES THE SUPREME COURT'S PROMULGATION OF THE FORM "ORDER OF PROBATION" IN FLORIDA RULE OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE 3.986 CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE TO PROBATIONERS OF CONDITIONS 1-11 SUCH THAT ORAL PRONOUNCEMENT OF THESE CONDITIONS BY THE TRIAL COURT IS UNNECESSARY?

See Farrington v. State, 654 So.2d 564, 565 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995). We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3 (b)(4), Fla. Const. Since we have already answered the identical question in the affirmative in State v. Hart, 21 Fla. L. Weekly S77 (Fla. Feb. 22, 1996), we quash the district court decision and remand to the district court for proceedings consistent with Hart.

It is so ordered.

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