Jackson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 15, 1981 · Hersey, Hurley, Moore
401 So. 2d 1115; 1981 Fla. App. LEXIS 19232 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Jackson v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The sole issue on this appeal is the trial court’s failure to instruct the jury on the penalties for grand theft. The appellant was convicted as charged and contends he is entitled to a new trial. We are compelled to reverse and remand for a new trial in accordance with the Supreme Court’s decision in Tascano v. State, 393 So.2d 540 (Fla. 1980).

REVERSED and REMANDED.

MOORE, HERSEY and HURLEY, JJ., concur.
