McCullough v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District
Apr 14, 1993
616 So. 2d 198 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1993)

Opinion

No. 92-02897.

April 14, 1993.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Pasco County; Lynn Tepper, Judge.

T. Philip Hanson, Jr. of Greenfelder, Mander, Hanson, Murphy Dwyer, Dade City, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and William I. Munsey, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


Appellant, Terri McCullough, challenges the trial court's order revoking her probation for failing to pay restitution. We reverse.

Probation may be revoked only upon a showing that the violation was willful and substantial, and in this case there was no such showing. See Hewett v. State, 613 So.2d 1305 (Fla. 1993). Accordingly, we reverse, and since the appellant's probationary period has expired, upon remand, the trial court should enter an order terminating her probation.

Reversed and remanded.

LEHAN, C.J., and SCHOONOVER and ALTENBERND, JJ., concur.
