STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE
Explore caselaw by topic → Browse Constitutionality Of Statutes cases and more on FLexlaw
This case comes to us on direct appeal from judgments of the Orange County Circuit Court entered on pleas of no contest reserving the right to appeal. Among the issues raised is the denial by the circuit court of motions by the appellants to dismiss charges alleging violations of Section 796.07, Florida Statutes (1975), and upholding the constitutionality of the statute. We have jurisdiction under Article V, Section 3(b)(1) of the Florida Constitution, and we deny the state’s motion to quash the appeal.
After a careful review of the appellants’ brief and the record, we dispense with the filing of a brief by the state and oral argument. The judgments entered below are affirmed. State v. Bales, 343 So. 2d 9 (Fla.1977).
It is so ordered.
OVERTON, C. J., and ENGLAND, SUNDBERG, HATCHETT and KARL, JJ., concur.

State v. Lick, 390 So. 2d 52 (Fla. 1980)…we should abide by the alternative construction which makes no sex-based distinction. Our decision comports with others which have upheld convictions of men under this statute. See, e. g., Whitted v. State, 362 So. 2d 668 (Fla.1978); Gort v. State, 345 So. 2d 726 (Fla.1977); State v. Bales, 343 So. 2d 9 (Fla.1977), and Bell v. State, 289 So. 2d 388 (Fla.1973). The order of the trial court is reversed and the case remanded for proceedings consistent with this opinion.

Hatch v. Minot, 369 So. 2d 974 (Fla. 2d DCA 1979)…action. An order making a final determination of such a collateral matter is final and appealable. Theo Hirsch Co. v. Scott, 87 Fla. 336, 100 So. 157 (1924). The court recently applied this reasoning in State Farm Mut. Auto Ins. Co. v. Am. Hardware, 345 So. 2d 726 (Fla.1977). We believe that the collateral order rule applies here. The order in question was a final determination that the mortgagee is entitled to the sum of $59,901 from the funds deposited for the property taken. That is the limit of the mortg…
