DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA FOURTH DISTRICT July Term 2008 STATE OF FLORIDA, Petitioner, v. THOMAS LONGO, Respondent. No. 4D08-2453 [October 1, 2008] PER CURIAM. For the same reasons discussed in State v. Cam Voong Leng, 987 So.2d 236 (Fla. 4th DCA July 30, 2008), we grant the State s petition for writ of certiorari and quash the circuit court s order denying the petition for writ of prohibition. Although we do not believe that the trial court judge holds any personal bias or prejudice against the Seminole Indian Tribe, the motion to disqualify was, technically, legally sufficient under these circumstances. Id. SHAHOOD, C.J., POLEN and MAY, JJ., concur. * * * Petition for writ of certiorari from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County; Leroy H. Moe, Judge; L.T. Case No. 08-16245 13. No response for respondent. Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, a n d Melanie Dale Suber, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for petitioner.
