Washington v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided February 25, 1994No. 93-297PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Per curiam

We affirm Washington’s convictions and sentences except that we reverse his conviction and sentence for the offense of battery on a law enforcement officer because the trial court failed to instruct the jury on the lesser-included offense of simple battery. Accordingly, we remand this case for a new trial on this charge. See State v. Wimberly, 498 So.2d 929 (Fla.1986); Crapps v. State, 566 So.2d 62 (Fla. 5th DCA 1990).

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; REMANDED.

W. SHARP, DIAMANTIS and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
