23 So.3d 206 (2009)

Linda Diane JACKSON, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

December 2, 2009.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Barbara J. Wolfe, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Jeanine M. Germanowicz, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
