Thomas v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

1Per curiam

Appellant was charged with sexual activity with a child which was alleged to have occurred on or about June 10, 1994. He pled guilty and was sentenced on March 30, 1995. He appeals an order granting the state’s motion to have him declared a sexual predator, arguing that it violates double jeopardy. In Collie v. State, 710 So.2d 1000 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998), the second district concluded that the registration required by the Florida Sexual Predator’s Act, codified at section 775.21-.23, Florida Statutes (1995), does not constitute double jeopardy. We agree with Collie in that regal’d.
