Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
We have jurisdiction under article V, section 3(b)(4), Florida Constitution, to answer a certified question of great public importance:
Whether Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.191(i)(4) is applicable to a criminal case wherein the defendant is taken into custody prior to January 1,1985,12:01 A.M., the effective date of the above-stated rule.
Zabrani v. Cowart, 502 So. 2d 1257 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986). We adopted the reasoning of the Zabrani court and answered the question posed here affirmatively in Bloom v. McKnight, 502 So. 2d 422 (Fla.1987). We approve the decision below.
It is so ordered.
MCDONALD, C.J., and OVERTON, EHRLICH, SHAW, BARKETT, GRIMES and KOGAN, JJ., concur.
