J.R.I. v. State

Appellant J.R.I., a child, appeals the trial court’s order committing him to a moderate risk juvenile facility upon the revocation of his probation. Appellant argues that his waivers of counsel in the original proceedings were not knowingly or intelligently made, and therefore, the trial court could not commit him upon revoking his probation. The State concedes that appellant’s waivers of counsel in the original proceedings, including his plea to the underlying offense, were not knowingly or intelligently made. See State v. T.G., 800 So.2d 204, 206, 210-11 (Fla.2001); see also Faretta v.…
