    William NORMILE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 4-86-0763.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    Aug. 12, 1987.
    Rehearing Denied Sept. 9, 1987.
    
      Harry Gulkin of Harry Gulkin, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Jr., Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Carolyn V. McCann, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

This is an unusual case, in that it involved a recess, unavoidably caused by the illness of the trial judge, of some two weeks after the evidence was closed, until the case resumed with arguments of counsel and instructions to the jury. We believe the concerns expressed by the supreme court in Livingston v. State, 458 So.2d 235 (Fla.1984) concerning the separation of jurors after deliberations have begun apply here as well, and that appellant’s motion for mistrial should have been granted. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for a new trial.

LETTS and DELL, JJ., concur.

ANSTEAD, J., concurs in part and dissents in part with opinion.

ANSTEAD, Judge,

concurring in part and dissenting in part.

I agree with the majority opinion and also believe that the evidence presented at trial does not support a finding of premeditation. Accordingly, I would hold that the trial court erred in not reducing the charge to second degree murder.
