10/02/2018 ORAL ARGUMENT HELD
Click to open document 12/20/2018 DISP-QUASHED FSC-OPINION: Because subsection (10) violates the Sixth Amendment by requiring the court rather than the jury to make the finding of dangerousness to the public necessary to increase the statutory maximum nonstate prison sanction to a state prison sentence, we quash the Fifth District's express declaration of subsection (10)'s validity in Brown and disapprove the Fourth District's decision in Porter rejecting a similar Sixth Amendment challenge to subsection (10). In order for a court to impose any sentence above a nonstate prison sanction when section 775.082(10) applies, a jury must make the dangerousness finding. It is so ordered.
