THOMAS v. STATE

No. 1D08-1217.

997 So.2d 476 (2008)

Christopher THOMAS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

December 12, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Christopher Thomas, pro se, Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, and Edward C. Hill, Jr., Special Counsel, Criminal Appeals, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Christopher Thomas, appeals an order striking his motion for the return of property. Appellant is correct that the trial court erred in finding that it lacked jurisdiction to consider his motion given that trial courts have the inherent authority to direct the return of property seized from a criminal defendant if that property is no longer needed as evidence against him or her. See Coon v. State, 585 So.2d 1079
