Darryl WILLIAMS, Appellant, v. Nancy LEBEAU, Appellee.
Darryl Williams appeals an injunction for protection entered against him. We reverse.
Because of a technical problem with the trial court's digital recording equipment, a significant portion of the evidence was not recorded. As a result, through no fault of the parties, the transcript of the proceedings is incomplete. Unfortunately, the missing portions of the transcript are necessary for a complete review of the issues raised on appeal.1 As a result, we have no alternative but to remand this matter for a new hearing. See Jones v. State, 780 So.2d 218 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001).
REVERSED AND REMANDED.
FOOTNOTES
1. The parties were unable to agree on a statement of the evidence, as authorized by Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.200(b)(4). Additionally, the trial judge was unable to recollect the evidence.
