STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE
CONSTANCE HOWARD, APPELLANT,
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE
638 So. 2d 213
Florida District Court of Appeal, Fourth District (1994)
Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
The state concedes, and we find, that it was error for the trial court to refuse to conduct an inquiry to determine whether, when the state used peremptory challenges to exclude women from the jury, it was acting in an impermissibly discriminatory manner.
