Opinion
The state correctly concedes that the trial court erred in excluding the defense witnesses without conducting a Richardson inquiry. Richardson v. State, 246 So.2d 771 (Fla.1971); Smith v. State, 372 So.2d 86 (Fla.1979); S.G. v. State, 518 So.2d 964 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988); Ward v. State, 477 So.2d 66 (Fla. 3d DCA 1985), approved, 502 So.2d 1245 (Fla.1987). We therefore reverse the convictions and sentences and remand for a new trial.
Reversed and remanded.
