Jeffrey Scott ROLAND, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 4D14-985.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    Dec. 17, 2014.
    Jeffrey Scott Roland, Daytona, pro se.
    Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and James J. Carney, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

The State concedes in its response to this court’s order to show cause that this matter must be reversed and remanded for further consideration of appellant’s rule 3.858 motion for DNA testing. This cause is remanded for the trial court to consider the merits of that motion. In doing so, the trial court may also consider, if appropriate, its earlier ruling on appellant’s petition for release and transportation of evidence for DNA testing, and motion for order directing buccal swabbing.

Reversed and remanded.

WARNER, GERBER and LEVINE, JJ., concur.
