Legal Opinion
Williams v. State
District Court of Appeal of Florida
Decided April 30, 1999No. 97-1522Published
1Per curiam
We reverse the appellant’s convictions and remand this case to the trial court for a new trial because the trial court permitted the appellant to handle significant portions of his defense without first advising him of the dangers of self-representation. See Brooks v. State, 703 So.2d 504 (Fla. 1st DCA 1997).
