Garrett v. State
Garrett v. State
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal by the defendant Charles Lynn Garrett from judgments of conviction and sentences for robbery and attempted first-degree murder. We affirm with one modification.
First, we reject the defendant’s contention that the trial court erred in denying a defense motion for a mistrial after a police officer testified concerning his post-arrest conversation with the defendant. This testimony was elicited to negate the defendant’s claimed defense of intoxication by showing that the defendant did not exhibit the usual signs of intoxication in his post-arrest en
Second, upon the state’s confession of error, we modify the judgments appealed from by striking all references therein to Section 775.087, Florida Statutes (1991). Without dispute, this statute is not involved in this ease and no sentence was imposed upon the defendant pursuant thereto. With this modification, the judgments and sentences appealed from are, in all respects,
Affirmed.
