DOUGLAS M. WILLIAMS, JR., Appellant, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee.

Case No. 5D06-1471

COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FIFTH DISTRICT

July 27, 2007, Opinion Filed

PRIOR HISTORY:    [*1]

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Sumter County, William H. Hallman, III, Judge.

COUNSEL:   James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Brynn Newton, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Rebecca Roark Wall, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

JUDGES:   PLEUS, ORFINGER and EVANDER, JJ., concur.

OPINION  

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. See Mayes v. State, 718 So. 2d 852 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998), which holds that the trial court erred in admitting the police officer’s testimony that he recognized the defendant on a tape from prior encounters with the defendant, but the error was harmless under the circumstances since there was no impermissible cumulative effect from the improperly admitted evidence.

PLEUS, ORFINGER and EVANDER, JJ., concur.
