Edward L. JACKSON, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 5D05-644.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    May 27, 2005.
    James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and David S. Morgan, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.
    Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Rebecca Rock McGuigan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.
   CONFESSION OF ERROR

PER CURIAM.

The State concedes that the trial court failed to conduct a Faretta inquiry before allowing the Appellant to represent himself, when accepting a plea. See Faretta v. California, 422 U.S. 806, 95 S.Ct. 2525, 45 L.Ed.2d 562 (1975). Therefore, judgment and sentence are reversed and this cause is remanded for further proceedings.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

SHARP, W., PETERSON and MONACO, JJ., concur.
