PER CURIAM. 
 
We initially accepted review of this case, St. Val v. State, 958 So. 2d 1146 
(Fla. 4th DCA 2007), on the basis of certified direct conflict with K.Y.L. v. State, 
685 So. 2d 1380 (Fla. 1st DCA 1997).  See art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const.  However, 
upon reflection and further consideration we have determined that we should 
exercise our discretion to discharge jurisdiction in this cause.  Accordingly, 
jurisdiction is discharged and this review proceeding is hereby dismissed. 
 
It is so ordered.
