    BALLARD v STATE OF FLORIDA
    Case No. 86-290 AC (County Case No. 41446,7,8NU)
    Eleventh Judicial Circuit, Appellate Division, Dade County
    August 26, 1987
    APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
    Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Marti Rothenberg, Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Terry L. Bedford, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
    Before NADLER, KAYE, GREENBAUM, JJ.
   OPINION OF THE COURT

GREENBAUM, Judge.

The Trial Court denied the Defendant’s Motion to Suppress. The issue to be determined was whether the State was required to present those guidelines which established the parameters of the road block.

The State must prove the legality of its search and automobile road block stop, by presenting to the Court proper established guidelines. By its failure to properly present this primary material evidence, they fail to meet the burden of proof necessary to establish the legality of the road block, thereby violating the Defendant’s Constitutional rights as guaranteed by the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution.

According, this case is reversed and the Motion to Suppress is granted.
