¶1Randy J. Whittington appeals the summary denial of his motion for postconviction DNA testing filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.853. We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
¶2In 1985, a jury convicted Mr. Whitting-ton of capital sexual battery. In his motion, Mr. Whittington sought DNA testing of several items allegedly collected by law enforcement officials during the crime investigation. The postconviction court denied the motion, concluding that at the time of Mr. Whittington’s arrest the items were not available and, therefore, were unavailable for testing now.
¶3The postconviction court did not require a response from the State and did not attach to its order any documentation supporting its finding that the items to be tested do not exist. See Borland v. State, 848 So.2d 1288 (Fla. 2d DCA 2003). Consequently, we reverse and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. See id. at 1290.
¶4Reversed and remanded.
