Ellison v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 4, 2001 · Campbell, Davis, Monterey, Patterson
784 So. 2d 1180; 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 4242; 2001 WL 322211 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Ellison v. State

Opinion of the Court

CAMPBELL, MONTEREY, (Senior) Judge.

Tyrone Ellison challenges the revocation of his community control. We reverse because only hearsay evidence supports Ellison’s violations as they are alleged in the affidavit of violation of community control. A violation of community control or probation cannot be sustained based solely on hearsay. Kipp v. State, 657 So.2d 931 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995).

Reversed and remanded.

PATTERSON, C.J.; and DAVIS, J., concur.
