Griswell v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District
Feb 7, 1995
649 So. 2d 350 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1995)

Opinion

No. 93-2702.

February 7, 1995.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Holmes County; Russell Cole, Judge.

George J. Little, Marianna, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Thomas Crapps, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.


Appellant was convicted of possession of cocaine. We find that the state did not sufficiently establish constructive possession of the contraband. See Moffatt v. State, 583 So.2d 779 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991). We, therefore, reverse appellant's conviction with directions that the court grant appellant's motion for judgment of acquittal.

ERVIN, MINER and WOLF, JJ., concur.
