Osman Lopez, Appellant, v. The State of Florida, Appellee.
UPON MOTION TO REVIEW ORDER DENYING POST-TRIAL RELEASE
Appellant, Osman Lopez, seeks review of a lower court order denying his amended motion for post-trial release pending appeal. We have jurisdiction. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.140(h)(4). As the State properly concedes, the trial court erred in failing to render written findings supporting the denial of bail. See Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.691(b); Fla. R. App. P. 9.140(h)(3). Accordingly, we grant the motion for review and reverse and remand with instructions for the court to reconsider the amended motion within three days of the date of this opinion. In doing so, the court shall examine the factors enunciated in Younghans v State, 90 So. 2d 308, 310 (Fla. 1956), and, in the event post-trial release is again denied, reduce its reasons to writing.
Reversed and remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
PER CURIAM.
