Roger v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided February 16, 2000No. 3D99-857PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Per curiam

There is no merit in any of the claims of trial or sentencing error suggested by counsel or raised by the appellant individually. Any reliance on Thompson v. State, 750 So.2d 643 (Fla.1999), which held the Gort Act, under which Roger was sentenced, unconstitutional, is unavailing because his offense was committed on April 17, 1998, after the legislature “revalidated” the statute. Lee v. State, 739 So.2d 1175 (Fla. 3d DCA 1999).

Affirmed.
