Bass v. State

Bass v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 6, 1997 · Gross, Klein, Polen
697 So. 2d 585; 1997 Fla. App. LEXIS 9013; 1997 WL 446893 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Bass v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We reverse the trial court’s order, denying appellant’s 3.850 motion, and remand for an evidentiary hearing in connection with appellant’s claim that his plea was rendered involuntary because of a suicide attempt and use of psychotropic medication that he was receiving as a result. The order and present attachments thereto do not conclusively refute appellant’s argument that his mental condition or his medication rendered him unable to comprehend the violation of probation plea proceedings.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

POLEN, KLEIN and GROSS, JJ., concur.
