Gould v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District

675 So. 2d 259 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1996)

Opinion

No. 95-2138.

June 21, 1996.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County; Michael F. Cycmanick, Judge.

James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and Brynn Newton, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Michael D. Crotty, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.


Appellant's convictions for delivery of cocaine, possession of cocaine and use of a minor in the sale or delivery of cocaine are affirmed. We find the evidence was sufficient to submit the case to the jury. As to the improprieties in the prosecutor's closing argument, although aspects of the closing were marginal and objections were made, the lower court's failure to sustain the objections made does not amount to reversible error. The state properly concedes an error was made in the written sentence imposing probation. Accordingly, we vacate the sentence and remand for correction of the written sentence to conform to the oral pronouncement.

Sentence VACATED and REMANDED.

W. SHARP, GRIFFIN and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
