D.D.R.,
Appellant,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA,
Appellee.
No. 2D2024-2536
March 13, 2026
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Pasco County; James R. Stearns,
Judge.
Blair Allen, Public Defender, and Tosha Cohen, Assistant Public
Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.
James Uthmeier, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Natalia Reyna-
Pimiento, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
D.D.R. appeals the juvenile disposition order revoking probation
and adjudicating her delinquent on the charge of misdemeanor battery.
The delinquency court entered the order in conjunction with similar
orders that it entered in five other cases charging D.D.R. with delinquent
acts after it conducted a consolidated revocation hearing for all six cases.
On appeal of one of those other orders, this court recently issued an
opinion reversing revocation of D.D.R.'s probation because the
delinquency court's determination that she had violated her probation

2
was based solely on hearsay. D.D.R. v. State, 51 Fla. L. Weekly D226
(Fla. 2d DCA Feb. 6, 2026).
We adopt the reasoning in that opinion and accordingly reverse and
remand for vacatur of the disposition order in the case underlying this
appeal.
Reversed and remanded for proceedings consistent with this
opinion.
