John L. BURTON, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

December 8, 1983.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael Allen, Public Defender, Terry P. Lewis, Sp. Asst. Public Defender, Tallahassee, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., Raymond L. Marky, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.


THOMPSON, Judge.

In this appeal from a judgment of guilt and sentence for the crime of sexual battery, Burton contends the trial judge erred in: (1) admitting into evidence certain hearsay testimony that was highly prejudicial to Burton, and (2) entering judgment on the sexual battery charge after the State had proposed, and Burton had accepted, an agreement whereby Burton would plead guilty to a lesser offense. We affirm in part and reverse in part.
