Head Matter:
Officer Rodney K. BATTLE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 94-198.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
July 15, 1994.
Dorothy K! Burk, Orlando, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Myra J. Fried, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
This police officer's failure to respond to a subpoena for deposition appears to be unintentional. His explanation, given under oath, shows he lacked any intent to violate the terms of the subpoena. His contempt conviction is reversed. Scrimshaw v. State, 592 So.2d 753 (Fla. 5th DCA 1992).
REVERSED.
HARRIS, C.J., and PETERSON, J., concur.
COBB, J., concurs specially with opinion.
