JOSE ALEJANDRO GALDAMEZ, APPELLANT,
v.
THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 3d DCA | 1998-07-29
No. 97-2802
Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and COPE and SORONDO, JJ.
713 So. 2d 1128 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1998) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Jose Alejandro Galdamez appeals his conviction for attempted second-degree murder as a lesser-included offense of attempted first-degree murder. He contends under the logic of State v. Gray, 654 So. 2d 552 (Fla.1995), there should be no such crime as attempted second-degree murder. We reject that argument on authority of Gentry v. State, 437 So. 2d 1097 (Fla.1983), and Pitts v. State, 710 So. 2d 62 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998).

Affirmed.

    …pted second-degree murder has been reviewed on appeal in two districts; neither has questioned reliance upon Gentry in light of the Gray decision, and each has affirmed the existence of the crime of attempted second-degree murder. Galdamez v. State, 713 So. 2d 1128 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998); Quesenberry v. State, 711 So. 2d 1359 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998); Pitts v. State, 710 So. 2d 62 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998).
