State v. Torres
State v. Torres
Opinion of the Court
The State of Florida appeals an Order granting a Motion to Dismiss filed by Appel-lee, Abraham Torres. WE REVERSE.
Appellee filed a sworn motion to dismiss admitting he was the driver of an automobile with several occupants who committed a robbery. Appellee denied participation in the robbery and denied knowledge that a robbery was to be committed by his passengers. The State filed a traverse which alleged that the victim would testify that Ap-pellee drove two passengers to the site of the robbery, the passengers got out of the vehicle, and they committed the robbery in plain view of Appellee. The passengers then reentered the vehicle, and Appellee drove away at a high rate of speed, thereby effectuating their escape.
The cause is therefore REVERSED and REMANDED.
