The STATE of Florida, Appellant, v. Alexander H. SUAREZ, Appellee.
    No. 96-1717.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    Aug. 21, 1996.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Katherine Fernandez Rundle, State Attorney and Anita J. Gay, Assistant State Attorney, for appellant.
    Kenneth J. Kukec, Tampa, for appellee.
    Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and GERSTEN and GODERICH, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

The State petitions for a writ of certiorari quashing the trial court’s order compelling the victim and prosecution witnesses to appear and participate at a live lineup containing the defendant. Because the defense has failed to establish a strong or compelling reason to warrant this exceptional remedy, we grant the petition and quash the trial court’s order. See State v. Kuntsman, 643 So.2d 1172 (Fla. 3d DCA 1994); State v. Ray, 604 So.2d 1249 (Fla. 4th DCA), review denied, 613 So.2d 8 (Fla.1992).

Certiorari granted; order quashed.
