Weems v. State
594 So. 2d 285, 17 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 95, 1992 Fla. LEXIS 160, 1992 WL 18571
Opinion
We have for review Weems v. State, 582 So.2d 830, 830 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991), in which the district court certified the following question of great public importance:
Is a first degree felony punishable by a term of years not exceeding life imprisonment subject to an enhanced sentence pursuant to the provisions of the habitual violent felony offender statute?
We answered this question in the affirmative in Burdick v. State, 594 So.2d 267 (Fla.1992). We therefore approve the opinion below.
It is so ordered.
We have jurisdiction pursuant to article V, section 3(b)(4) of the Florida Constitution.
