Supreme Court of Florida

No. 76050
Versions:587 So. 2d 455
16 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 625
1991 Fla. LEXIS 1624
1991 WL 183086
PER CURIAM.

We review State v. Anders, 560 So.2d 288 (Fla. 4th DCA 1990), in which the Fourth District Court of Appeal certified the following questions as being of great public importance: *

Does an agreement whereby a convicted drug trafficker will receive a substantially reduced sentence in exchange for setting up new drug deals and testifying for the state violate the holding in State v. Glosson [, 462 So.2d 1082 (Fla.1985)]? Assuming the existence of a due process violation under Glosson, does Glosson ⅛ holding extend to a codefendant who was not the direct target of the government’s agent?

Id. at 290 n. 3, 293. We recently addressed these issues in State v. Hunter, 586 So.2d 319- (Fla.1991), and accordingly, we vacate the judgment below and remand this case to the district court for reconsideration in light of Hunter.

It is so ordered.

SHAW, C.J., and OVERTON, McDonald, barkett, grimes, KOGAN and HARDING, JJ., concur.

Notes

We have jurisdiction pursuant to article V, section 3(b)(4) of the Florida Constitution.
