State v. Van JohnsonState v. Van Johnson

District Court of Appeal of Florida
Aug 27, 1980
79-2154
Versions:386 So. 2d 1316

LETTS, Chief Judge.

This cause is reversed. We see no need to belabor the facts. On July 24, 1980, the Supreme Court in Butterworth v. Fluellen (Fla. Case No. 57,385, Opinion filed July 24, 1980) receded from Negron v. State, 306 So.2d 104 (Fla. 1974), for the very reason that we expressed doubt about when we followed Negron in State v. Reese, 359 So.2d 33 (Fla. 4th DCA 1978), cert. den. 365 So.2d 715 (Fla. 1978).1

The Supreme Court having receded from Negron, it is now our turn to recede from Reese.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

BERANEK, J., and WESSEL, JOHN D., Associate Judge, concur.
