HATCHETT, Justice.

The district court, 356 So.2d 323, has certified to ‍​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​‍us the question:

Whether the speedy trial time provisions of Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.191(b)(1) apply to a defendant who, after being arrested ‍​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​‍or charged, is thereafter imprisoned on an unrelated charge?

We have jurisdiction pursuant to Article V, Section 3(b)(3), Florida ‍​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​‍Constitution (1968) and answer this question in the negative. See Lewis v. State, 357 So.2d 725 (Fla.1978).

Therefore, we remand ‍​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​‍this case to the district court for further proceedings consistent with our decision in Lewis.

It is so ordered.

OVERTON, ‍​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​‍C. J., and ADKINS, BOYD and SUNDBERG, JJ., concur.
