5D01-1199

The State appeals an order dismissing a charge of trafficking in oxycodone. In dismissing the charge, the able trial court relied on our decision in Travis v. State, 754 So. 2d 59 (Fla. 5th DCA 2000). Because the supreme court reversed our decision, we must reverse the trial court's decision as well. See State v. Travis, No. 00-902 (Fla. Jan. 17, 2002).
