COLEMAN v. STATE

No. 1D09-6039.

58 So.3d 324 (2011)

Taylor Christine COLEMAN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Rehearing Denied April 15, 2011.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Nancy A. Daniels , Public Defender, and Glen P. Gifford , Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Pamela Jo Bondi , Attorney General, and Charlie McCoy , Senior Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


BENTON, C.J.

Taylor Coleman appeals her convictions on two counts of third-degree felony theft, one count of third-degree burglary, and one count of criminal mischief. Because the trial court erred in overruling defense counsel's objection to a witness's comment on Ms. Coleman's invoking her right to remain silent, and the state did not establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the improper comment was harmless, we reverse and remand for a new trial.
