PER CURIAM.

I.P., a juvenile, appeals an adjudication of delinquency after a hearing partially conducted remotely, using the Zoom platform. I.P. and his counsel, as well as the prosecution and the judge, appeared in the courtroom, in person. Some witnesses testified remotely. Initially, I.P. objected to the remote proceeding and the trial court held a hearing on the objection, overruled the objection, but did not make case specific findings supporting the need to conduct the proceeding remotely. We reverse and remand for a new adjudicatory hearing on the authority of M.D. v. State, 345 So. 3d 359 (Fla. 3d DCA 2022); J.T.B. v. State, 345 So. 3d 927 (Fla. 3d DCA 2022); and T.H. v. State, 349 So. 3d 951 (Fla. 2d DCA 2022).

Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
