District Court of Appeal

Law cited
§ 39.044(10)
On CourtListener
PER CURIAM.

The appellant correctly contends that it was error for the circuit court to sentence the appellant, a juvenile, to county jail for contempt of court. See L.M. v. State, 592 So.2d 1210 (Fla. 2d DCA 1992). Accordingly, we reverse the imposed county jail sentence and remand for resentencing under section 39.044(10), Florida Statutes (Supp.1990).

PARKER, A.C.J., and ALTENBERND and BLUE, JJ., concur.
