730 So. 2d 1290

Moore v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1999-05-14

Decided 1999-05-14

GRIFFIN, C.J.

¶1We have received correspondence which we treat as a petition for writ of habeas corpus. Petitioner asserts he is being illegally held because the crime he committed— snatching a purse containing only $12 — is not a felony. He fails to recognize that it is the “snatching” that defines his crime, not the amount snatched.

¶2PETITION DENIED.

COBB and PETERSON, JJ., concur.
