Portela v. StatePortela v. State
Versions:661 So. 2d 9321995 WL 610621
Jose David Portela appeals his convictions of false imprisonment and sexual battery with a deadly weapon. He asserts that his peremptory challenge of a juror was improperly overruled. We conclude that the point was not properly preserved for appellate review because defendant “accepted the jury immediately prior to its being sworn without reservation of his earlier-made objection.” Joiner v. State, 618 So.2d 174, 176 (Fla. 1993); see also Cruz v. State, 660 So.2d 792 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995).
Affirmed.
