Full Opinion (761 characters)
PER CURIAM. Marian Kay Walker appeals her convictions for trafficking in methamphetamine, trafficking in hydrocodone, possession of testosterone, possession of hydromor-phone, possession of a firearm with an altered serial number, possession of less than twenty grams of cannabis, and possession of paraphernalia. Because our review of the record reveals that Walker never entered a plea to the charges, we reverse and remand for further proceedings. See Cole v. State, 924 So.2d 962, 963 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006) (concluding that adjudicating a defendant guilty on a count to which he did not enter a plea constitutes fundamental error (citing Johnson v. State, 710 So.2d 715, 716 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998))). REVERSED AND REMANDED. TORPY, BERGER and WALLIS, JJ., concur.
