Description
In this case, we consider the propriety of the embezzlement jury instructions given and answer one question certified to us by the Court of Appeals: Whether the trial court erred when it refused to instruct the jury that mistake of fact was a defense to embezzlement. Holding that, under the facts of this case, failure to instruct the jury on a correct application of the mistake-of-fact defense is fundamental error, we reverse and remand for a new trial.
