Dombrowski v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided June 11, 1997No. 96-1212PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Per curiam

We affirm appellant’s conviction and sentence as an habitual felony offender. We reject his claim that the trial court’s imposition of the maximum habitual offender term was the result of judicial vindictiveness for appellant’s failure to accept a prior plea bargain. From our reading of the transcript, no plea bargain was in fact offered. However, even if it was, we find no judicial vindictiveness. Batista v.
