MARK KAIGLER,  
Petitioner, 
 
vs. 
 
STATE OF FLORIDA,  
Respondent. 
 
[November 22, 2006] 
 
PER CURIAM. 
We review Kaigler v. State, 913 So. 2d 1254 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005), in which 
the Second District Court of Appeal certified conflict with Taylor v. State, 740 So. 
2d 89 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999).  We have jurisdiction because of the certified conflict 
and also because the Second District cited with approval Tillman v. State, 807 So. 
2d 106 (Fla. 5th DCA 2002), which was then pending review in this Court.  See 
art. V, § 3(b)(3)-(4), Fla. Const.; Jollie v. State, 405 So. 2d 418 (Fla. 1981). 
In Tillman v. State, 934 So. 2d 1263 (Fla. 2006), we quashed the decision of 
the Fifth District Court of Appeal in that case and approved the decision of the 
First District Court of Appeal in Taylor.  Id. at 1274.  When our Tillman decision 
became final, we directed the respondent in this case, the State of Florida, to show 
cause why we should not summarily quash the decision below and remand for the 
Second District to apply the holding in Tillman.  The State responded that it could 
offer no reason why the Second District decision should not be quashed and the 
case remanded.  Accordingly, we grant review in this case, quash the decision 
below, and remand for reconsideration in light of our decision in Tillman. 
It is so ordered.
