1DissentMcDONALD, Justice
I dissent. As I stated in my concurring opinion in M.F. v. State, 583 So.2d 1383 (Fla.1991), I believe that B.T. v. State, 573 So.2d 101 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991), was correctly decided and should be approved. I still conclude that, absent prejudice to the defendant in preparing a defense, the State can make substantive amendments to a timely-filed delinquency petition.
