J.H. v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 16, 1999 · Booth, Browning, Kahn
745 So. 2d 1133; 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 16877; 1999 WL 1188501 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

J.H. v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant was convicted of possession of cocaine and misdemeanor possession of cannabis. We affirm the conviction for possession of cannabis. We must, however, reverse the conviction for possession of cocaine because the State’s evidence was not inconsistent with Appellant’s reasonable hypothesis of innocence. See, e.g., Cook v. State, 571 So.2d 530, 531 (Fla. 1st DCA 1990).

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED and REMANDED in part.

BOOTH, KAHN and BROWNING, JJ., CONCUR.
