District Court of Appeal of Florida June 6, 2001, No. 4D00-1798 (Soto v. State)

KLEIN, J.

We affirm appellant’s conviction for burglary of a dwelling, addressing one issue: whether the court erred in allowing the state to strike a Hispanic juror in the absence of a race-neutral reason.

The state’s explanation for striking the juror was that the juror did not appear to speak or understand English very well.
