COLEMAN v. STATE

No. 88-01999.

559 So.2d 103 (1990)

William COLEMAN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

March 28, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender and D.P. Chanco, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Charles Corces, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


THREADGILL, Judge.

William Coleman was charged on April 6, 1988, with possession and delivery of cocaine. He was convicted by a jury and appeals the judgments and sentences on double jeopardy grounds. Both convictions arose out of a single sale of one rock of cocaine to a Tampa police detective and therefore sentencing him on both charges violates his constitutional protection against double jeopardy. State v. Burton, 555 So.2d 1210
