Walter Blackshear v. State Florida

BARKETT, J. We have for review Blackshear v. State, 504 So.2d 1330 (Fla. 1st DCA 1987), based upon express and direct conflict with Slappy
v. State, 503 So.2d 350 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987). We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. We find that the trial court
erred in failing to conduct a timely inquiry under State v. Neil, 457 So.2d 481 (Fla. 1984), clarified sub nom, State v. Castillo,
486 So.2d 565 (Fla. 1986), and State v. Slappy, 522 So.2d 18 (Fla. Mar. 10, 1988). We thus quash the decision of the district
court and remand for further proceedings.
