James PEASE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 1D14-2390.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    May 1, 2015.
    Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender, and Joel Arnold, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant.
    Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Kathryn Lane, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

James Pease appeals an order revoking his probation, which was based on the trial court’s oral pronouncement that he violated probation in part by having contact with the victim or the victim’s family during the period of supervision. Violation of this condition of probation was not charged in the State’s affidavit. It is fundamental error and a deprivation of Appellant’s due process rights to base a revocation of probation on an uncharged violation of a condition of that probation. Smith v. State, 738 So.2d 433, 435 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999). Because it is not clear whether the trial court would have revoked Appellant’s probation based solely on the charged and proven violation relating to contact with a minor, we reverse the order and remand for further proceedings. Richardson v. State, 694 So.2d 147, 147 (Fla. 1st DCA 1997).

REVERSED and REMANDED.

WOLF, BENTON, and RAY, JJ., concur.
