RALPH GROSS,
Petitioner,
vs.
STATE OF FLORIDA,
Respondent.
[September 18, 2003]
WELLS, J.
We originally accepted jurisdiction of Gross v. State, 820 So. 2d 1043 (Fla.
4th DCA 2002), based upon express and direct conflict with Hankin v. State, 682
So. 2d 602 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996).  However, we find that the Second District’s
recent decision in Cairl v. State, 833 So. 2d 312 (Fla. 2d DCA 2003), resolved the
conflict.  Therefore, we discharge jurisdiction because the conflict of decisions was
resolved.
It is so ordered.
