10/06/2010 ORAL ARGUMENT HELD
12/16/2010 DISP-DISAPPROVED We conclude that where a criminal defendant files a motion to dismiss pursuant to section 776.032, the trial court should decide the factual question of the applicability of the statutory immunity. A motion to dismiss on the basis of section 776.032 immunity is not subject to the requirements of rule 3.190(c)(4) but instead should be treated as a motion filed pursuant to rule 3.190(b). While the error in Dennis was harmless, we disapprove the Fourth District's reasoning and approve the reasoning of Peterson on the conflict issue.
01/06/2011 WEST CORRESPONDENCE CORRECTED OPINION - On page 15, counsel for petitioner has been corrected reflect, Barbara J. Wolfe of The Wolfe Law Firm, West Palm Beach, Florida.
