Jones v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 12, 1990 · Campbell, Ryder, Schoonover
567 So. 2d 1068; 1990 Fla. App. LEXIS 7807; 1990 WL 152197 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Jones v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant Darron Jones was sentenced to thirty months in prison after the trial court found he had violated the terms of his probation by using cocaine. On appeal he argues, and the state concedes, that the only evidence of this violation was hearsay. Accordingly, the sentence is vacated and this case is reversed for further proceedings consistent herewith. See, e.g., Arnold *1069v. State, 497 So.2d 1356 (Fla. 4th DCA 1986).

SCHOONOVER, C.J., and RYDER and CAMPBELL, JJ., concur.
