District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

March 20, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joseph A. Fisher, III, of Leventhal & Slaughter, P.A., Orlando, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Ann M. Phillips, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.


TORPY, J.

Appellant was convicted of aggravated assault with a firearm arising from a road-rage incident. The issues on appeal all concern the admission of testimony of the investigating officer that revealed the substance of eyewitness accounts from individuals who did not testify at trial. Although the State concedes that the testimony was inadmissible hearsay, it argues that the error was not preserved and was, nevertheless, harmless.1
