Supreme Court of Florida

In proceedings involving defendant's motion to dismiss affidavits of violation of probation, claiming that because he was arrested without a warrant and no arrest warrant for the violations was issued during his probationary period, his probation was never tolled and the trial court lacked jurisdiction to revoke his probation once the probationary period expired, a decision of the Fourth District that the trial court had jurisdiction is affirmed as the 2007 revision to section j948.06(1), Florida Statutes (2007) was procedural in nature and its application in defendant's revocation of probation proceeding did not violate the prohibition on ex post facto laws.
