v.
DAVID TOBIN, AS CIRCUIT JUDGE OF THE ELEVENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, RESPONDENT

Fla. 3d DCA | 1990-01-31
No. 89-2900
Before BASKIN, GERSTEN and GODERICH, JJ.
556 So. 2d 1176 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1990) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Petitioner, Robert Lewis Myers, seeks a writ of prohibition to disqualify respondent judge from presiding over petitioner’s criminal case. We find that petitioner’s motion was legally sufficient to require the respondent to disqualify himself. See Williams v. State, 344 So. 2d 927 (Fla. 3d DCA), cert. dismissed, 351 So. 2d 409, 348 So. 2d 955 (Fla.1977); Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.230(d). Because we are confident that the respondent will enter an order of recusal, we, accordingly, withhold formal issuance of our writ of prohibition. Petition granted.
