STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLANT,
v.
REGINALD DENNIS, APPELLEE
PER CURIAM.
The State of Florida appeals the trial court’s order excluding in part alleged similar fact evidence. We treat the state’s notice of appeal as a petition for writ of certiorari. See State v. Jenkins, 624 So. 2d 354 (Fla. 2d DCA 1993), review denied, 634 So. 2d 624 (Fla.1994). We conclude that the state has failed to demonstrate that “ ‘there has been a violation of a clearly established principle of law resulting in a miscarriage of justice.’ ” State v. Pettis, 520 So. 2d 250, 254 (Fla.1988) (quoting Combs v. State, 436 So. 2d 93, 96 (Fla.1983)). Accordingly, we deny the petition.
Petition for writ of certiorari denied.
PARKER, A.C.J., and PATTERSON and LAZZARA, JJ., concur.

The ruling here constitutes such a violation. We, therefore, grant the petit…

State v. Gates, 826 So. 2d 1064 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002)…r). In order for the writ to issue, the State must prove that the trial court’s ruling violated a clearly established legal principle which would result in material injustice. State v. Cohens, 701 So. 2d 362, 363 (Fla. 2d DCA 1997); State v. Dennis, 696 So. 2d 848 (Fla. 2d DCA 1997). Applying that standard to the trial court’s order, we hold that, to the extent the order forbids the State from introducing admissible evidence against Gates, the order violates a clearly established legal principle.
