756 So. 2d 261

Willis v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 2000-05-03

Decided 2000-05-03

PER CURIAM.

¶1Menelek Willis appeals from the denial of his motion for postconviction relief alleging ineffective assistance of counsel. Because the record does not conclusively refute his claim, see Fla. R.App. P. 9.140(i), we reverse and remand for an evidentiary hearing on his claim that trial counsel should have moved to suppress his statements to police because they were obtained without an effective waiver, taking into specific consideration his age and his parents’ absence from the questioning.

¶2Reversed and remanded.
