Thornton v. State , 2014 Fla. App. LEXIS 14156 ( 2014 )

PER CURIAM.

Darrell Thornton appeals his convictions and sentences for attempted second-degree murder, battery, robbery with a deadly weapon, carjacking, and second-degree arson. As the State properly concedes, fundamental error in the conviction for attempted second-degree murder occurred when the court instructed the jury that an element of the lesser-included offense of attempted manslaughter by act is the commission of “an act which was intended to cause the death of’ the victim. Williams v. State, 123 So.3d 23 (Fla.2013). Consequently, we reverse the conviction and sentence for attempted second-degree murder and remand for a new trial on that count. We otherwise affirm.

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED.

THOMAS, RAY, and OSTERHAUS, JJ., concur.
