779 So. 2d 465

State v. C.C.S.

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided October 25, 2000

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 2000-10-25

Relies on State v. JVW

Decided 2000-10-25

PATTERSON, Chief Judge.

¶1The State appeals from the trial court’s order withholding adjudication of delinquency because the trial court failed to suspend C.C.S.’s driver’s license, contrary to the requirements of section 322.056(1), Florida Statutes (1997). C.C.S. entered a no contest plea to the delinquent act of possession of an alcoholic beverage while under the age of twenty-one, a violation of section 562.111, Florida Statutes (1997), and an enumerated offense under section 322.056(1). The trial court accepted the plea, withheld adjudication, and directed that C.C.S. comply with rules at home, complete community service hours, and comply with his alcohol/substance abuse evaluation for any treatment or counseling.

¶2This court has held that even when the trial court accepts a no contest plea and withholds adjudication, section 322.056(1) mandates that the trial court suspend the juvenile’s driver’s license. See State v. J.V.W., 739 So.2d 173 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999). Thus, we reverse the trial court’s order and remand for the trial court to suspend C.C.S.’s lipense in accordance with the requirements of section 322.056(1).

¶3Reversed and remanded.
