No. 2D03-1053.

933 So.2d 1271 (2006)

In re COMMITMENT OF William CAMPER. William Camper, Appellant, v. State of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

July 28, 2006.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Debra K. Brueckheimer, Assistant Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.

Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Diana K. Bock, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.


FULMER, Chief Judge.

William Camper challenges his involuntary civil commitment as a sexually violent predator pursuant to the "Jimmy Ryce Act," sections 394.910-.931, Florida Statutes (2002). He argues that, because he was mentally incompetent and could not participate in his defense, the trial court erred in going forward with the civil commitment proceedings. We reverse based on our opinion in Branch v. State, 890 So.2d 322
