19 GARCIA, Judge.

20   {1}    Defendant has appealed from a conviction for aggravated battery. We
1 previously issued a notice of proposed summary disposition in which we proposed to

2 reject Defendant’s challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence, but to reverse in light

3 of an apparent evidentiary error. Defendant has filed a memorandum in support, and

4 the State has filed a memorandum indicating that it does not oppose.

5   {2}   Accordingly, for the reasons previously stated, we reverse and remand for

6 further proceedings.

7   {3}   IT IS SO ORDERED.

8                                                ________________________________
