HARDY v. STATE

No. 1D06-3431.

8 So.3d 486 (2009)

Anthony HARDY, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

May 4, 2009.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender, and Kathleen Stover, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, and Trisha Meggs Pate, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.
