QUINTAVIS JAQUAN WILSON,

Appellant,

v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

Appellee. _____________________________

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Osceola County. John D.W. Beamer, Judge.

April 24, 2026

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. See State v. Simpson, 414 So. 3d 291, 297 (Fla. 6th DCA

2025) (“We have no occasion to address [whether the smell of cannabis alone is

sufficient to establish probable cause] because this case does not involve smell

alone.”); State v. Fortin, 383 So. 3d 820, 823-24 (Fla. 4th DCA 2024) (“In the

instant case, we do not need to decide whether the smell of fresh marijuana alone

gives an officer probable cause to search a vehicle, because in addition to the plain

smell of fresh marijuana, the officer saw in plain view, . . . uncontained flakes of marijuana.”); Lincoln v. State, 398 So. 3d 1156, 1160 (Fla. 6th DCA 2024)

(“Generally, to raise a claimed error on appeal, a litigant must object . . . when the

alleged error occurs.”); Morrow v. State, 397 So. 3d 1205, 1208 (Fla. 1st DCA

2024) (“Morrow did not preserve this argument by contemporaneous objection at

the revocation hearing . . . .”).

James Uthmeier, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Allison Leigh Morris, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.
