Per Curiam.

The defendant is appealing his conviction of a ‍​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‍violation of probation. This court reversed the defendant’s conviction of certain drug charges in State v. Martinez, 21 Conn. App. ‍​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‍813, 573 A.2d 353 (1990). Because the defendant’s violation of probation was based solely on that conviction, the ‍​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‍conviction of the violation of probation must also be reversed. State v. Soltes, 20 Conn. App. 342, 347, 566 A.2d 1374 (1989); State v. Drouin, 12 ‍​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‍Conn. App. 101, 102 n.1, 529 A.2d 740 (1987).

The judgment is reversed and the case is remanded with ‍​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‍direction to dismiss the charge of violation of probation.
