STATE OF FLORIDA,  
Petitioner, 
 
vs. 
 
MAYNOR EFREN MONNAR,  
Respondent. 
 
[February 28, 2008] 
 
PER CURIAM. 
 
We have for review Monnar v. State, 939 So. 2d 251 (Fla. 1st DCA 2006), 
in which the First District Court of Appeal acknowledged (but did not certify) 
conflict with Galindez v. State, 910 So. 2d 284 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005), approved, 955 
So. 2d 517 (Fla. 2007).  We have jurisdiction.  See art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. 
     
We stayed proceedings in this case pending disposition of Galindez, which 
we ultimately decided on harmless error grounds based on a thorough review of the 
record.  See Galindez v. State, 955 So. 2d 517 (Fla. 2007).  We thereafter issued an 
order directing Petitioner to show cause why our Galindez decision should not 
control the outcome of the present case.  However, Petitioner’s response does not 
 
- 2 -
contain enough information or record attachments for us to perform a Galindez 
harmless error analysis.  Moreover, we cannot unilaterally perform such an 
analysis, as the record is not before this Court. 
We accordingly grant the petition for review in the present case.  The 
decision under review is quashed and this matter is remanded to the First District 
Court for application of a harmless error analysis based on our decision in 
Galindez and a thorough review of the record. 
    
It is so ordered.
