¶1ON MOTION TO DISMISS

PER CURIAM.

¶2On the authority of State v. C.C., 449 So.2d 280 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983) (en banc), we reluctantly dismiss the State’s appeal from the trial court’s order suppressing evidence and reluctantly decline to treat the unauthorized notice of appeal as a petition for writ of certiorari. We certify that this decision directly conflicts with State v. J.P.W., 433 So.2d 616 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983), and State v. W.A.M., 412 So.2d 49 (Fla. 5th DCA), rev. denied, 419 So.2d 1201 (Fla. 1982). We further certify to the Supreme Court of Florida that this decision passes upon a question of great public importance, namely:

“Does the State have the authority to file interlocutory appeals in juvenile cases, and, if not, may this court review by certiorari an order suppressing evidence in such a case?”
