Opinion filed June 24, 2016.

Appeal from the County Court for Collier
County; Vincent Murphy, Judge.

Stephen M. Grogoza, Naples, for Appellant.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General,
Tallahassee, and Katherine Coombs Cline,
Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for
Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

              We have for our consideration an appeal from county court where a

question of great public importance was certified, and we accepted jurisdiction pursuant

to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.160(e)(2). The Collier County Court, pursuant

to rule 9.030(b)(4), certified the following question to this court as involving a matter of

great public importance:
              WHETHER A SISTER STATE'S MOTOR VEHICLE
              RECORD, ADMITTED INTO EVIDENCE UNDER CHAPTER
              90.902, FLORIDA STATUTES, IS SUFFICIENT TO
              ESTABLISH THE ELEMENT OF A PRIOR
              ADMINISTRATIVE SUSPENSION FOR A REFUSAL TO
              SUBMIT TO TESTING?

              Having reviewed the briefs, and following oral argument, this court

declines to answer the question certified by the county court to be one of great public

importance and therefore transfers this appeal, together with the filing fee, to the

Twentieth Judicial Circuit of Florida, appellate division, pursuant to rule 9.160(f)(2).

NORTHCUTT, CASANUEVA, and SALARIO, JJ., Concur.
