JORDAN v. STATE

No. 84252.

694 So.2d 708 (1997)

Keydrick JORDAN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Florida.

Rehearing Denied May 27, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James B. Gibson, Public Defender and Christopher S. Quarles, Assistant Public Defender, Chief, Capital Appeals, Seventh Judicial Circuit, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General and Mark S. Dunn, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


PER CURIAM.

We have on appeal the judgment and sentence of the trial court imposing the death penalty upon Keydrick Jordan. We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(1), Fla. Const. We affirm Jordan's convictions for first-degree murder and attempted robbery. We vacate, however, Jordan's sentence of death and remand for a new sentencing proceeding in light of penalty-phase testimony that was clearly improper and unfairly prejudicial.
