Case No. 2D05-1459
Opinion filed January 27, 2006.
Appeal pursuant to Fla. R. App. P.
9.141(b)(2) from the Circuit Court for
Highlands County; Olin W. Shinholser,
Judge.
ALTENBERND, Judge.
Morris K. Anderson appeals the denial of his motion for relief from
judgment, filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.540, which challenges his
designation as a sexual predator. Although this court recently receded from its prior
case law on this issue in King v. State, 911 So. 2d 229 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005) (holding that
challenges to a sexual predator designation should now be raised through a motion for
postconviction relief), the trial court fully addressed Anderson's claims on the merits,
whether considered as a rule 1.540 motion or as a motion for postconviction relief.
Accordingly, we affirm the denial of Anderson's claim.
Affirmed.
CANADY, and LaROSE, JJ., Concur.
