Florida District Courts of Appeal, 1991

James v. State

James v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 12, 1991 · Baskin, Cope, Gersten
575 So. 2d 335; 1991 Fla. App. LEXIS 2178; 1991 WL 31839 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

James v. State

Opinion of the Court

ON CONFESSION OF ERROR

PER CURIAM.

Based on Pineda v. State, 571 So.2d 105 (Fla. 3d DCA 1990), the State concedes that the trial court committed reversible error by limiting voir dire to twenty minutes, where there were twenty-nine potential jurors and the charges were attempted first degree murder of a police officer and robbery. Because there must be a new trial, we need not reach appellant’s second point on appeal.
