STEVENS v. STATE

No. 3D12-272.

120 So.3d 1258 (2013)

Curtis STEVENS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

September 11, 2013.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carlos J. Martinez , Public Defender, and Robert Kalter , Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.

Pamela Jo Bondi , Attorney General, and Jay E. Silver , Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

Before WELLS and LOGUE, JJ., and SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.


SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.

Stevens appeals from three convictions and a fifteen-year concurrent sentence for possession of cocaine, marijuana, and a controlled substance without a prescription. Because his trial motions for judgment of acquittal should have been granted, we reverse.

The only connection between Stevens and the drugs was that he had a key to, but had not entered the front door of the apartment in which the drugs were kept, in plain view.
