A Case of Original Jurisdiction — Habeas Corpus, L.T. Nos. J98-9828, J99-486 J99-4002.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and LEVY and FLETCHER, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

J.P., a juvenile, petitions for a writ of habeas corpus, seeking immediate release from secure detention. As in S.B. v. Rayford, 717 So.2d 1107 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998), the State has conceded the correctness of J.P.'s contentions. Accordingly we grant the petition and direct that J.P. be released from secure detention to such other program and on such other conditions as the trial court may require.

Habeas corpus granted.
