Once again a prisoner seeks to challenge the constitutionality of Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.1911 upon the ground that, as applied, it denies him equal protection pursuant to the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Appellant Yost reasons that the subject rule, in establishing a one year time frame of speedy trial for prisoners, when weighed against a 180-day time frame for non-prisoners presents a classic “on the face” deprivation of a fundamental right, and that such classification may withstand an equal protection challenge only if the state can demonstrate a “compelling Interest”. Shapiro v. Thompson, 394 U.S. 618, 89 S.Ct. 1322, 22 L.Ed.2d 600 (1969). Yost then argues that such a “compelling state interest cannot be shown”. The identical question was presented to the Supreme Court of Florida in State v. Lott, 286 So.2d 565 (Fla.1973), cert. den. Lott v. Florida, 417 U.S. 913, 94 S.Ct. 2613, 41 L.Ed.2d 217 (1974), which resolved same contrary to Yost’s contention here.
AFFIRMED.
