Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal from a criminal conviction for withholding support for a minor child. We reverse.
In the trial court there was no showing of the defendant’s ability or capacity to provide support and there was no showing of the needs of the minor child. Thus, the essential factors set forth in Stedman v. State, 80 Fla. 547, 86 So. 428 (1920), were not established.
REVERSED with orders that appellant be discharged.
