SCOTT BENNINGTON, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 4th DCA | 1995-07-05
No. 94-0629
GUNTHER, C.J., and STONE and FARMER, JJ., concur.
657 So. 2d 57 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fourth District (1995) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We reverse Appellant’s convictions and sentences for indecent assault and remand for a new trial. The state acknowledges that it was error to deny the requested jury instruction on the lesser included offense of exposure under section 800.03, Florida Statutes (1993). See Herrington v. State, 538 So. 2d 850 (Fla.1989); Rigdon v. State, 621 So. 2d 475 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). As the issue was not harmless, the convictions must be reversed. State v. Abreau, 363 So. 2d 1063 (Fla.1978); Acensio v. State, 497 So. 2d 640 (Fla.1986).

GUNTHER, C.J., and STONE and FARMER, JJ., concur.
