LORI JEAN O'BRIAN, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1995-01-31
No. 92-3630
BOOTH, MICKLE and BENTON, JJ., concur.
649 So. 2d 336 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1995) Caution
Cited by 29 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We must reverse O’Brian’s conviction for attempted manslaughter and remand for a new trial because a jury instruction was given on attempted manslaughter by culpable negligence, a non-existent crime in Florida. Taylor v. State, 444 So. 2d 931 (Fla.1983); Arline v. State, 550 So. 2d 1180 (Fla. 1st DCA 1989). We also remand for resentencing on O’Brian’s conviction for aggravated battery (a second-degree felony), as the State concedes that the sentence was improperly enhanced to a first-degree felony under section 775.087(1), Florida Statutes (1991), based upon O’Brian’s use of a weapon in committing the offense.

BOOTH, MICKLE and BENTON, JJ., concur.
