Head Matter:
The STATE of Florida, Appellant, v. Donald Eugene COLQUITT, Appellee.
No. 81-2045.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
April 6, 1982.
Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Calvin L. Fox, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellant.
Whitman, Wolfe & Gross and John W. Salmon, Miami, for appellee.
Before HENDRY, DANIEL S. PEARSON and FERGUSON, JJ.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The trial court erred, and defendant candidly confesses error, in dismissing an information at bond hearing for lack of probable cause. Except for appropriately ruling on a sworn motion to dismiss under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.190(c)(4), which was not filed in this cause, a trial court may not dismiss a duly returned information on a finding that the evidence is insufficient to support it. State v. Brooks, 388 So.2d 1291 (Fla. 3d DCA 1980).
Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
