CATES, Judge.

Selling marijuana: sentence, five years.

The true bill ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍omits the name of the buyer. Ground 5 of the defendant’s demurrer raised this ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍deficiency. Hence, the trial court erred in overruling the demurrer. Duin v. State, 693, 260 So.2d ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍599 (mss. Mar. 16, 1971).

*238In review of reversible error thus being shown, we have not examined ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍any of the other points raised by appellant.

The judgment below is one to be ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍reversed and the cause is remanded.
