Kessler v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 21, 1969 · Carroll, Pearson, Swann
227 So. 2d 225 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Kessler v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The circumstantial evidence upon which the jury’s guilty verdict was based is insufficient to support the judgment of conviction of grand larceny. We therefore reverse that judgment and remand the cause with directions to discharge the appellant from custody. Cf. Rollins v- State, Fla.App.1968, 211 So.2d 861; Davis v. State, Fla.App.1968, 216 So.2d 28.

Reversed and remanded with directions.
