CANTY v. STATE

No. BA-167.

471 So.2d 676 (1985)

Bobby Lee CANTY, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

July 2, 1985.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael E. Allen, Public Defender, and Sue Carter Collins, Asst. Public Defender, Tallahassee, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Mark C. Menser, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.


WIGGINTON, Judge.

However, we feel it necessary to discuss Canty's alternative point under which he challenged the circuit court's subject matter jurisdiction.
