Webb v. State

Because of the language in Thompson v. State, 708 So.2d 315, 317 n. 1 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998), review granted, 717 So.2d 538 (Fla.1998), remanded, 750 So.2d 643 (Fla.1999), I reluctantly concur in this decision. Were I writing from a blank slate, I would affirm this case. Webb assumed that he was within the window period based on what I conclude is dicta in Thompson, which stated that the window period for challenges to the constitutionality of chapter 95-182 extended from October 1, 1995 to May 24, 1997.4 I now conclude that the window period must close on October 1, 1996.
