September 15, 1978.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael J. Minerva, Public Defender, and Louis G. Carres, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert L. Shevin, Atty. Gen., and Raymond L. Marky, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.


PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a criminal conviction for withholding support for a minor child. We reverse.

In the trial court there was no showing of the defendant's ability or capacity to provide support and there was no showing of the needs of the minor child. Thus, the essential factors set forth in Stedman v. State, 80 Fla. 547, 86 So. 428 (1920), were not established.

REVERSED with orders that appellant be discharged.
