Harris v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 8, 2011 · Griffin, Sawaya, Cohen
65 So. 3d 143; 2011 Fla. App. LEXIS 10648; 2011 WL 2650869 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Harris v. State

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Thomas J. Harris, Jr., II, appeals his judgment and sentences for first degree murder and attempted robbery with a firearm, raising five issues. We find no reversible error and affirm. We do agree that the testimony of Deshay Jackson concerning the reason he refused to testify at the first trial should not have been admitted, but allowing the jury to hear the question and Deshay Jackson’s answer, as limited by the trial court, was harmless. See State v. DiGuilio, 491 So.2d 1129, 1139 (Fla. 1986).

AFFIRMED.

GRIFFIN, SAWAYA and COHEN, JJ., concur.
