Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John H. Lipinski, Miami, for respondent.

Before HENDRY and HUBBART, JJ., and VANN, HAROLD R. (Ret.), Associate Judge.


PER CURIAM.

A petition for writ of certiorari filed by the state presents for review an order of the circuit court requiring the state to disclose the identity of a confidential informant, in a prosecution against respondent for certain violations of Chapter 893 of the Florida Statutes.
