McKnight v. State , 390 So. 2d 485 ( 1980 )

  • PER CURIAM.

    REVERSED. Under the circumstances of this case, it is our view that the trial court erred in refusing to allow the appellant to establish on cross-examination that one of the prosecution’s principal witnesses was on probation. See Davis v. Alaska, 415 *486U.S. 308, 94 S.Ct. 1105, 39 L.Ed.2d 347 (1974). Accordingly, this cause is reversed for a new trial.

    ANSTEAD, MOORE and BERANEK, JJ., concur.
