556 So. 2d 1202 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1990)

Opinion

No. 89-1102.

February 14, 1990.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Broward County, Patti Englander Henning, J.

John Files, Immokalee, pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Alfonso M. Saldana, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.


We reverse the order denying post conviction relief. The sworn record before us alleges that defense counsel admitted on the record that he had not prepared properly for trial and that his actions disadvantaged the defendant. On remand, the trial court shall either conduct an evidentiary hearing or attach relevant portions of the record which support denial of the motion.

STONE, POLEN and GARRETT, JJ., concur.
