v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 2d DCA | 1991-04-05
No. 90-02000
SCHOONOVER, C.J., and CAMPBELL and THREADGILL, JJ., concur.
576 So. 2d 1378 Florida District Court of Appeal, Second District (1991) Positive Treatment
Cited by 10 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant M.R.G. seeks review of a circuit court order adjudicating him delinquent and placing him on supervised community control. It is undisputed that, through no fault of appellant, a transcript of the adjudicatory hearing cannot be obtained nor can an adequate record be reconstructed. Accordingly we have no alternative but to remand this case to the circuit court with instructions to conduct a de novo hearing. Delap v. State, 350 So. 2d 462 (Fla.1977).

We disagree with the state’s contention that this matter has become moot due to the fact appellant’s term of community control has expired.

Reversed.

SCHOONOVER, C.J., and CAMPBELL and THREADGILL, JJ., concur.
