State v. Knight
District Court of Appeal of Florida
1Opinion of the Court
FULMER, Chief Judge.
We dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction and explain our reasoning. In this appeal, the State seeks review under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.140(c)(1)(B) of an order granting a motion to suppress evidence.' However, the trial court did not enter a written order on the suppression issue. This court lacks jurisdiction to hear the appeal from an order granting a motion to suppress where no written order has been entered by the trial court. See State v. Johnson, 892 So.2d 563 (Fla. 1st DCA 2005); State v. Siegel, 662 So.2d 1013 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995).…
