Head Matter:
Tyrone FLEMING, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 89-0149.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
Feb. 14, 1990.
Rehearing and Stay Denied March 29, 1990.
Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Tanja Ostapoff, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Deborah Guller, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We affirm appellant's robbery conviction but reverse the conviction for attempted second degree murder and remand for a new trial. The trial court, apparently under the mistaken belief that no such crime existed, refused to instruct the jury on the lesser-included offense of attempted manslaughter. This was reversible error. See Marshall v. State, 529 So.2d 797 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988); Hunter v. State, 389 So.2d 661 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988); Hunter v. State, 389 So.2d 661 (Fla. 4th DCA 1980).
DOWNEY, ANSTEAD and LETTS, JJ., concur.
