D.H. v. STATE

No. 1D06-4522.

952 So.2d 603 (2007)

D.H., a child, Petitioner, v. STATE of Florida, Respondent.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

March 26, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender, and David P. Gauldin and John Hedrick, Assistant Public Defenders, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, and Sheron Wells, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


PER CURIAM.

D.H. appeals an involuntary commitment order entered pursuant to section 985.223(3), Florida Statutes (2005). An involuntary commitment order is not a final appealable order for which this court has jurisdiction under rule 9.030(b)(1), Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure. Considering the liberty interest at stake, though, we elect to treat this appeal as a petition for writ of certiorari. See M.H. v. State, 901 So.2d 197
