Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

The State petitions for certiorari review of an order suppressing Williams rule evidence. See Williams v. State, 110 So. 2d 654 (Fla.1959), codified at Fla. Stat. § 90.404(2) (1999). We have jurisdiction. See State v. Pettis, 520 So. 2d 250, 253 (Fla.1988); see also Richardson v. State, 706 So. 2d 1349 (Fla.1998); State v. Smith, 586 So. 2d 1237 (Fla. 2d DCA 1991).

We grant the-petition, quash the order excluding evidence of the collateral offense involving Baby Devin, and remand for further proceedings in light of our decision in Barber v. State, 781 So. 2d 425 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001).

WRIT GRANTED.

COBB, PETERSON and GRIFFIN, JJ., concur.
