OPINION

ALARID, Judge.

Defendant Paul E. Baca appeals from convictions of assault (NMSA 1978, § 30-3-1) (Repl.Pamp.1984) and battery (NMSA 1978, § 30-3-4) (Repl.Pamp.1984). The Bernalillo County district court heard the case on a de novo appeal from the metropolitan court. One of the issues the defendant raises on appeal is whether the district court had jurisdiction to try the defendant.

We reverse and remand with directions to vacate the judgment and sentence based upon the jurisdictional issue. Because this issue is dispositive, we do not reach the other issues.
