STATE OF FLORIDA v. ALEXANDER PERDOMO (2025)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

STATE OF FLORIDA, Petitioner, v. ALEXANDER PERDOMO, Respondent.

No. 2D2024-0857

Decided: May 16, 2025

James Uthmeier, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Allison C. Heim, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Petitioner. Ron M. Kleiner of Law Offices of Ron M. Kleiner, Miami, for Respondent.

For the reasons expressed in State v. Korson, 50 Fla. L. Weekly D689, D689 (Fla. 2d DCA Mar. 26, 2025), the State's petition for writ of certiorari is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Although the State cannot be afforded relief in this proceeding, given the frequency with which the issue presented by the State appears to be arising we believe it is necessary to reiterate that section 943.0435, Florida Statutes, is procedural in nature. See id. at D690. As such, the trial court should have applied the current version of the statute when considering Alexander Perdomo's petition for removal of the requirement to register as a sexual offender. See id. As a result of the trial court's error, Perdomo was relieved of the registration requirement prematurely.

Dismissed.

PER CURIAM.

BLACK, SMITH, and LABRIT, JJ., Concur.
