Legal Opinion

O.Y. v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided June 29, 2011No. 3D10-2148Published

1Per curiam

Confession of Error

Based on the state’s proper confession of error, we reverse O.Y.’s adjudication of delinquency on count 1 for the lesser included offense of assault on a law enforcement officer. This adjudication is fundamental error because the charging document did not allege the elements of assault, and assault is not a necessarily lesser included offense to the charge of battery on a law enforcement officer. VC. v. State, 63 So.3d 831, 2011 WL 1878004 (Fla. 3d DCA 2011).

The adjudication is affirmed in all other respects.
