No. 2D99-1767.

754 So.2d 891 (2000)

Douglas S. ALVAR, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

April 14, 2000.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Nevin A. Weiner of Livingston, Patterson, Strickland & Weiner, P.A., Sarasota, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Anne S. Weiner, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.

The trial court erred in denying the motion to suppress and, accordingly, we reverse.
