    Mario Sylvester MACIAS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 73-172.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    April 5, 1974.
    Rehearing Denied May 28, 1974.
    Douglas S. Lambeth and William B. Sei-del, Fort Lauderdale, for appellant.
    Robert L. Shevin, Atty. Gen., and Wallace E. Allbritton, Asst. Atty. Gen., and Washington Quinones, Legal Intern, Tallahassee, and Frank B. Kessler, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Based upon our consideration of the briefs and oral argument and our review of the record on appeal we are of the opinion that defendant has failed to demonstrate reversible error. The information filed on November 13, 1972, charging defendant with a lewd and lascivious act upon a person under the age of fourteen years, charged the defendant with a new crime and was not grounded on the same conduct or criminal episode previously contained in Count II of the information filed on February 11, 1972 and nolle prossed on July 14, 1972. See F.R.Cr.P. 3.191(h)(2), 33 F.S.A.; Bryant v. Blount, Fla.App.1972, 261 So.2d 847. Moreover, the defendant was not properly charged with a criminal offense until November 13, 1972. See Schroeder v. State, Fla.App.1971, 252 So.2d 270.

Affirmed.
