S.A. v. State, 816 So. 2d 1201, 2002 Fla. App. LEXIS 6902, 2002 WL 1021665 (Fla. Ct. App. 2002).

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

S.A., a child, challenges the final judgment adjudicating her delinquent of grand theft (count I), criminal mischief in excess of $1,000 (count II), and burglary of a conveyance (count III). She contends that, at the plea hearing, the trial court fundamentally erred in failing to adequately inquire into her waiver of her right to counsel as required by Florida Rule of Juvenile Procedure 8.165(b)(2).1 Based on the supreme court’s previous discussion and holding in State v. T.G., 800 So.2d 204, 213 (Fla.2001), we agree and hereby reverse S.A.’s commitment and remand for a new plea hearing. See also T.M. v. State, 811 So.2d 837, 839 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002)(re-versing for failure to conduct proper inquiry into waiver of counsel).

REVERSED and REMANDED.

POLEN, C.J., STEVENSON and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
