David M. Deren v. State of Florida

SC07-1700

Mr. Deren was convicted of battery and disorderly conduct for his participation in a fight in a bar with a bouncer. He challenged the conviction, arguing his constitutional right to due process had been violated when the state failed to share information about the bouncer's workers compensation benefits. The trial judge denied the motion for a new trial. The Fourth District Court of Appeal upheld the trial court and this appeal followed.
