State of Florida, Petitioner v. Lawrence Andrew Ingram, Respondent — Pariente, J., Concurring

Summary

Justice Pariente concurred only in the result, agreeing that the Fifth District's decision could not stand but disagreeing with the majority's decision to vacate without answering the certified statutory question. She would have quashed the decision on the merits and held that the Public Records Act does not entitle a convicted defendant to obtain an unredacted videotaped statement identifying a minor sexual-offense victim through a public-records request. Justice Canady, concurring in part and dissenting in part, agreed that the case was moot but would not have vacated the Fifth District's opinion because dismissal deprived the Court of jurisdiction to act on it.
