Opinion

No. 98-1024

Opinion filed May 5, 1999

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Broward County; Royce Agner, Judge; L.T. Case No. 97-8386 CF10A.

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Ian Seldin, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Leslie T. Campbell, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


We affirm the appellant's convictions, but direct the trial court to correct the sentence imposed for driving without a valid license. The sentence of 237 days time served exceeded the maximum sentence of 60 days permitted by statute. Fla. Stat. §§ 322.03; 322.39(2); 772.082(4)(b)(1995). On remand, the trial court shall impose a corrected sentence that does not exceed the statutory maximum. The appellant's presence at resentencing is not required.

STONE, C.J., GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
