Carter v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Gerald James Carter, Appellant, challenges his convictions for attempted second-degree murder, shooting into an occupied building, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Pursuant to the Florida Supreme Court’s holding in Williams v. State, — So.3d - (Fla. 2013), we reverse the conviction for attempted second-degree murder and remand for a new trial on that count. Finding no fundamental error under the second issue Appellant raises, we affirm Appellant’s convictions for shooting into an occupied dwelling and possessing a firearm.

REVERSED in part; AFFIRMED in part; REMANDED.

PADOVANO, ROWE, and RAY, JJ., concur.
