Reginald E. SANDERS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

May 19, 1995.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Megan Olson, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Kimberly D. Nolen, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


CAMPBELL, Acting Chief Judge.

Appellant challenges his robbery conviction on the grounds that the jury should have been instructed on the lesser included offense of resisting a merchant. He also maintains that the court compounded that error by preventing defense counsel from informing the jury of that offense, thus precluding appellant from presenting his defense to the jury. We agree.
