OPINION

BROWN, Judge.

Jason Lee Sowers appeals his convictions for criminal recklessness as a class D felony, resisting law enforcement as a class D felony, and his adjudication as an habitual offender. Sowers raises two issues, one of which we find dispositive and restate as whether the communication between the bailiff and the foreperson resulted in fundamental error. We reverse and remand.
