676 So. 2d 531

Sweeting v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1996-07-17

Relies on 491 So. 2d 1129 - State v. DiGuilio

Decided 1996-07-17

' PER CURIAM.

¶1We find the claimed error to be harmless in light of the other overwhelming evidence of guilt which included a valid confession by the defendant. State v. DiGuilio, 491 So.2d 1129, 1139 (Fla.1986).

¶2Affirmed.

¶3JORGENSON and GREEN, JJ., concur.

COPE, Judge

¶4(specially concurring).

¶5I concur in affirming the convictions. The defendant opened the door to the testimony he now complains about, and the trial court had the discretion to allow the State some latitude to explore the issue on redirect examination. In my view there was no eviden-tiary error.
