CHRISTOPHER MICHAEL SADLER, Appellant, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed February 16, 2007 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Volusia County, Julianne Piggotte, Judge. James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Nancy Ryan, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Carmen F. Corrente, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. Case No. 5D06-363

ORFINGER, J.

Christopher M. Sadler challenges his convictions for purchase of a minor for involvement in pornography and solicitation to commit that offense. On appeal, Mr. Sadler presents three arguments: (1) that the court lacked jurisdiction over the instant matter; (2) that his conduct did not amount to the offense of purchase of a child for

involvement in pornography; and (3) that his convictions are barred by double jeopardy. We find merit in Mr. Sadler's first point and reverse. The State charged Mr. Sadler by information with the crimes of purchase of a minor for involvement in pornography and solicitation to commit that same offense. See
