State v. S.S.

District Court of Appeal of Florida

1Opinion of the Court

LaROSE, Judge.

The State argues that the trial court erred in failing to impose a mandatory six-month driver’s license suspension on S.S., a juvenile. We agree and reverse.

S.S. pleaded no contest in several cases, including one involving possession of marijuana. See § 893.13(6)(b), Fla. Stat. (2007). The trial court withheld adjudication and placed S.S. on probation. The State asked the trial court to impose the mandatory license suspension. See § 322.056(1), Fla. Stat. (2007). The trial court refused to do so, implying that the sanction was not required when adjudication was withheld.
