Full Opinion (483 characters)
PER CURIAM. In this appeal, A.P. argues that the trial court erred in denying the defense motions for continuance and new trial which were based on the inability of A.P.’s mother to attend the adjudicatory hearing due to her hospitalization. The state properly concedes error. We, therefore, reverse the order adjudicating A.P. delinquent and remand for a new hearing. See J.R. v. State, 923 So.2d 1269 (Fla. 1st DCA 2006). REVERSED AND REMANDED. WOLF, ROWE, and SWANSON, JJ„ concur.
