Arnold v. State
Arnold v. State
572 So. 2d 1026; 1991 Fla. App. LEXIS 218; 1991 WL 2745
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Arnold v. State
Opinion of the Court
We reverse and remand for a new trial. The reasons given by the prosecutor to justify the exercise of the peremptory challenge of a black juror are not supported anywhere in the record. See State v. Neil, 457 So.2d 481 (Fla. 1984); Floyd v. State, 569 So.2d 1225 (Fla. 1990).
REVERSED and REMANDED.
Concurring Opinion
concurs specially.
I concur in the reversal. However, on retrial I believe it would be error to admit the contents of a BOLO which described the defendant based on State v. Baird, 572 So.2d 904 (Fla. 1990), and Harris v. State, 544 So.2d 322 (Fla. 4th DCA 1989).
