Opinion

No. 79-1804.

April 22, 1980.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Dade County, Mario P. Goderich, J.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Elliot H. Scherker, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and James H. Greason, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before HUBBART, SCHWARTZ and NESBITT, JJ.


We reverse the adjudication of delinquency on a finding of attempted burglary because of a variance between the petition, which laid ownership of the premises in one Minnie Hill, and the proof, which showed temporary ownership, possession and control was in a tenant named Simmy. Haugland v. State, 374 So.2d 1026 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979). The reversal is without prejudice to file an amended petition for delinquency properly alleging temporary ownership, possession and control, provided the offense is not barred by limitations and the offender is still a juvenile.

Reversed and remanded.
