Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 13, 2003 · Gersten, Goderich, Shevin
851 So. 2d 900; 2003 Fla. App. LEXIS 12334; 2003 WL 21919348 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Mims v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

George Mims appeals a judgment and sentence for attempted manslaughter with a firearm. The trial court committed fundamental error when it gave an erroneous jury instruction to the jury. See Thompson v. State, 814 So.2d 1103 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002); King v. State, 800 So.2d 734 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001). Accordingly, we vacate the sentence and reverse and remand for a new trial.

Reversed and remanded for a new trial.
