James King v. State of Florida

no. 01-1883

Orange County

The Office of Statewide Prosecutor charged King with various crimes committed in Orange County. King challenged the charges on grounds that the Prosecutor did not have authority to prosecute crimes occurring within a single judicial circuit. The Prosecutor contended that King's activities involved more than one circuit. He was convicted, and the Fifth District Court affirmed.
