400 So. 2d 174; 1981 Fla. App. LEXIS 20320
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Jordan v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant’s conviction for theft is reversed on the basis of error resulting from the prosecutor’s impermissible comment on the accused’s right to remain silent, which error was adequately preserved for appeal by objection and a motion for mistrial.
