Opinion of the Court
SHAW, Justice.
We have for review Williams v. State, 658 So. 2d 665 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995), in which the district court addressed the same question we recently answered in State v. Johnson, 21 Fla.L.Weekly S154, — So. 2d — [1996 WL 154126] (Fla. April 4, 1996). We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.

It is so ordered.
GRIMES, C.J., and OVERTON, KOGAN, HARDING, WELLS and ANSTEAD, JJ., concur.
