J. J., a Juvenile, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

Rehearing Denied February 12, 1982.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Andrew M. Kassier, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Anthony C. Musto, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before HENDRY, NESBITT and BASKIN, JJ.


HENDRY, Judge.

The order of the trial court withheld adjudication of delinquency and placed appellant in a community control program. Because our review of the record in this case convinces us that the evidence failed to negate every reasonable hypothesis of innocence, we hold that the trial court erred in denying the juvenile's motion for judgment of acquittal and reverse the decision with directions to discharge the juvenile.
