Edward James THOMAS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. VV-302.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Feb. 10, 1981.
    
      Michael J. Minerva, Public Defender, and Louis G. Carres, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.
    Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Lawrence A. Kaden, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

The trial court erred in not complying with Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.390(a). See Tascano v. State, 393 So.2d 540 (Fla.1980). By objection to the trial court’s denial of the requested instruction, appellant properly preserved this point for review. We have considered the remaining points raised by appellant and find them to be without merit.

Reversed for new trial.

McCORD and LARRY G. SMITH, JJ., and LILES, WOODIE A. (Retired), Associate Judge, concur.
