D.A. v. STATE

No. 1D06-6324.

959 So.2d 1281 (2007)

D.A., a Child, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

July 12, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

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

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, and Terry P. Roberts, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


PER CURIAM.

The Appellant asserts that the trial court erred when it deviated from the commitment-level placement recommended by the Department of Juvenile Justice and ordered that Appellant provide a sample of his DNA. We find that the trial court's deviation was based on an appropriate consideration, the need to protect the community, which was supported by a preponderance of the evidence. See J.L.K. v. State, 894 So.2d 984
