GLENN SMITH, APPELLANT,
v.
FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 2004-05-21
No. 1D03-2694
BOOTH, POLSTON and HAWKES, JJ., concur.
875 So. 2d 683 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (2004) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant appeals the trial court’s denial of his complaint for declaratory judgment challenging the constitutionality of the term “disorderly conduct” contained in Fla. Admin. Code R. 33-601.314, § 9-17. We affirm the trial court’s ruling because the term is not vague or overbroad. See Smith v. Fla. Dep’t of Corr., 799 So. 2d 319, 319 (Fla. 1st DCA 2001) (holding that the prohibition against fighting in Fla. Admin. Code R. 33-601.314, § 2-4 was not unconstitutionally vague or overbroad); D.L.B. v. State, 707 So. 2d 844, 845 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998) (holding that statute prohibiting “affray” was not impermissibly vague because ordinary people could understand the meaning of “affray”).

AFFIRMED.

BOOTH, POLSTON and HAWKES, JJ., concur.
