16 So. 3d 308 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2009)

Opinion

No. 5D09-162.

August 28, 2009.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Brevard County, Morgan Laur Reinman, Judge.

James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and David S. Morgan, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Jeffrey R. Casey, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.


J.L. ("Appellant"), a juvenile, appeals the trial court's imposition of both alternative sanctions and secure detention for a single violation of probation. The State properly concedes error. Section 984.09(1), Florida Statutes (2008), authorizes either secure detention or alternative sanctions, but not both. On remand, the trial court shall correct the sentence.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

GRIFFIN, TORPY and LAWSON, JJ., concur.
