CORRECTED

STATE OF FLORIDA, Respondent. ________________________________/ Opinion filed March 2, 2022 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, A Case of Original Jurisdiction.

PER CURIAM.

2 Jose Acevedo (“Petitioner”) petitions our court for a writ of habeas corpus. Although the State had not motioned for pretrial detention, the trial court failed to set a bond on Petitioner’s battery charge. The State properly concedes error. See Thomas v. State, 208 So. 3d 326, 326–27 (Fla. 5th DCA 2017). We grant the petition and direct the trial court to conduct a pretrial release hearing pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.131 no later than two business days following the issuance of this opinion.

PETITION GRANTED.

EVANDER, SASSO, AND COHEN, JJ., concur.
