Head Matter:
Robert THOMAS, Petitioner, v. Ken JENNE, as Sheriff of Broward County, Florida, Respondent.
No. 4D99-3794.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
March 29, 2000.
Alan H. Schreiber, Public Defender, Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, and Debra A. Bookout, Assistant Public Defender, Fort Lauderdale, for petitioner.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Leslie T. Campbell, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for respondent.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Petitioner Robert Thomas was charged by information with grand theft and resisting arrest without violence. After his arrest, he was released after posting a $1,000 bond. He failed to appear for arraignment. A "no bond" capias was issued for his arrest. Thomas surrendered on the capias and was arraigned.
Thomas filed a pro se motion for reconsideration of bond, in which he claimed that his failure to appear for arraignment was not willful. He asked the court to release him on his own recognizance or to reinstate his original bond.
The court held a hearing on Thomas's motion. After listening to Thomas's testimony, the trial court ruled that he had been properly noticed for arraignment and stated that his testimony was not credible. The state argued that Thomas had used numerous aliases and different birthdates in previous court proceedings and that he had committed offenses in different counties in Florida. The trial court denied Thomas's motion to set bond.
Thomas filed a petition for writ of habe-as corpus seeking to quash the trial court's order denying bond and directing the trial court to set a reasonable bond.
As we ruled on December 14, 1999 before the issuance of this opinion, we deny the petition on the authority of Bradshaw v. Jenne, 754 So.2d 109 (Fla. 4th DCA 2000).
STONE and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
GROSS, J., concurs in part and dissents in part with opinion.
