K.L.C. v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 18, 1990 · Cobb, Cowart, Harris
568 So. 2d 123; 1990 Fla. App. LEXIS 8015; 1990 WL 155510 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

K.L.C. v. State

Opinion of the Court

COBB, Judge.

The appeal in this case, which was Case No. JU89-3738 at the trial level, challenges the defendant’s conviction because of a violation of the confrontation right under the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments. See Maryland v. Craig, — U.S. -, 110 S.Ct. 3157, 111 L.Ed.2d 666 (1990) and Coy v. Iowa, 487 U.S. 1012, 108 S.Ct. 2798, 101 L.Ed.2d 857 (1988). The facts herein are basically indistinguishable from those in D.A.D. v. State, 566 So.2d 257 (Fla. 5th DCA 1990); therefore, we reverse the judgment and sentence and remand for new trial.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

COWART and HARRIS, JJ., concur.
