State v. J.M.

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided October 4, 1983

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1983-10-04

Relies on State v. CC

Decided 1983-10-04

¶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 dismiss the State’s appeal from the trial court’s order granting a motion to suppress a confession in a juvenile case and decline to treat the unauthorized notice of appeal as a petition for writ of certiorari. We 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 an interlocutory appeal from an order granting a motion to suppress in a juvenile case, and, if not, may this court review that order by certiorari?”

¶3Appeal dismissed.
