District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

March 13, 1991.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Marcy K. Allen, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Joseph A. Tringali, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.


PER CURIAM.
