434 So. 2d 39

Tukes v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1983-07-08

Relies on 333 So. 2d 457 - Alsdorf v. Broward County · 316 So. 2d 618 - Swartz v. State

Decided 1983-07-08

WENTWORTH, Judge.

¶1Appellant seeks review of his conviction and sentence for the offense of grand theft. We do not address the contention that Fla. *40Const. Art. I, § 12, and Swartz v. State, 316 So.2d 618 (Fla. 1st DCA 1975), cert. denied, 333 So.2d 465 (Fla.1976), require that an arrest warrant issue only upon a sworn written statement of probable cause. The circumstances of the present case permit a warrantless arrest pursuant to § 901.15(2), Florida Statutes, and any error in the issuance of the arrest warrant would therefore be harmless.

¶2The order appealed is affirmed.

ROBERT P. SMITH, Jr., and ZEHMER, JJ., concur.
