537 So. 2d 693 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1989)

Opinion

No. 88-815.

January 27, 1989.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Gadsden County; P. Kevin Davey, Judge.

Michael E. Allen, Public Defender, and Kathleen Stover, Asst. Public Defender, Tallahassee, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and William A. Hatch, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.


Insufficient evidence was presented to support a conviction for improper exhibition of a dangerous weapon. We find that the trial court abused its discretion in denying appellant's motion for judgment of acquittal on that charge and REVERSE that conviction. The other convictions are AFFIRMED.

SHIVERS, ZEHMER and BARFIELD, JJ., concur.
