Earnest SCOTT, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

July 23, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Cherry Grant, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Aubin Wade Robinson, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


SHAHOOD, Judge.

Appellant, Earnest Scott, Jr. ("Scott"), was charged by information with possession of a controlled substance. Following the trial court's denial of his motion to suppress, Scott entered a "no contest" plea reserving his right to appeal the ruling on his motion to suppress. We hold that it was error to deny Scott's motion to suppress, and reverse with directions that Scott be discharged.
