J.F., A CHILD.
No. 89-2399.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
July 25, 1990.
Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Louis G. Carres, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant J.F.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and James J. Carney, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee State.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We reverse appellant's adjudication and disposition. The case against him was based entirely on circumstantial evidence. State v. Law, 559 So.2d 187, 188 (Fla.1989). The state failed to exclude all reasonable hypothesis of innocence. Id. The trial judge should have granted appellant's motion for a judgment of acquittal. We re mand with directions to discharge appellant.
REVERSED AND REMANDED WITH DIRECTIONS.
DOWNEY, POLEN and GARRETT, JJ., concur.
