Neal v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 9, 2010 · Palmer, Monaco, Sawaya
40 So. 3d 83; 2010 Fla. App. LEXIS 10016; 2010 WL 2695644 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Neal v. State

Opinion

PALMER, J.

Calvin Neal appeals the final order entered by the trial court denying his motion for post-conviction relief filed pursuant to rule 3.850 of the Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure. Based upon the State’s concession that an evidentiary hearing is required to address Neal’s claim that his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to inform the trial court during the court’s *84 Richardson 1 inquiry of relevant case law concerning the State’s non-disclosure of Neal’s statement, we reverse and remand for an evidentiary hearing on this issue. As to all other issues raised by Neal, we affirm.

AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part, and REMANDED.

MONACO, C.J. and SAWAYA, J„ concur.
