Opinion

No. 4D05-2703.

June 21, 2006.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, Palm Beach County; Stephen A. Rapp, Judge; L.T. Case No. 97-6575 CFA02.

Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Jeanine M. Germanowicz, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Dea Abramschmitt, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

The state challenges the circuit court's imposition of a downward departure sentence without providing written reasons or engaging in the proper analysis. We affirm the sentence because the state failed to preserve the issue in the trial court. Affirmed. See State v. Dort, 929 So.2d 1190 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006).

WARNER, GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
