Brown v. State

Brown v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 27, 1983 · Genson, Hubbart, Jor, Nesbitt
443 So. 2d 309; 1983 Fla. App. LEXIS 25359 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Brown v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We reverse the trial court’s order summarily denying the defendant’s 3.850 motion. It affirmatively appears from the record that the transcript of the plea colloquy has been lost, and it further appears that the court reporter has lost her notes. The defendant has alleged that his plea was involuntary and that he did not understand the nature of the charges nor the consequences of the plea. We accordingly remand for an evidentiary hearing on the 3.850 motion.

Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
