Williams v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District

674 So. 2d 932 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1996)

Opinion

No. 96-0094.

June 12, 1996.

Appeal of order denying rule 3.850 motion from the Circuit Court for the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit, St. Lucie County; Ben L. Bryan, Jr., Judge.

Christopher Williams, Raiford, pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Patricia Ann Ash, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


The trial court failed to attach to its order those parts of the record that conclusively refute appellant's claims for post-conviction relief. In Hastings v. State, 670 So.2d 1176 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996), we stated that "[t]he state's supplementation of the order with portions of the record is insufficient to support the trial court's summary denial."

Accordingly, we reverse the trial court's summary denial of appellant's motion for post-conviction relief and remand this cause for either attachment of portions of the record refuting his claim for relief or for an evidentiary hearing.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

DELL, WARNER and GROSS, JJ., concur.
