Burke v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District
Aug 5, 1994
640 So. 2d 1222 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1994)

Opinion

No. 93-2286.

August 5, 1994.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Citrus County, John P. Thurman, J.

James B. Gibson, Public Defender and Susan A. Fagan, Asst. Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Anthony J. Golden, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for appellee.


Christopher Burke appeals from the judgment and sentences imposed following a jury trial. We find no merit to his claim that the trial court committed error during the trial. Burke's objection to the requirement that he pay the cost of transcribing certain depositions is also without merit. Sumter v. State, 570 So.2d 1039, 1041 (Fla. 1st DCA 1990), review dismissed, 583 So.2d 1037 (Fla. 1991); Posey v. State, 501 So.2d 192, 194 (Fla. 5th DCA 1987). We do agree, however, that he could not be convicted and sentenced to both possession of cannabis with intent to sell and possession of more than 20 grams of that same cannabis. See Pasley v. State, 625 So.2d 1303 (Fla. 1st DCA 1993). Accordingly, we reverse and remand for resentencing. Because Burke will be resentenced, we need not address his argument regarding the discrepancies between his written conditions of probation and the court's oral pronouncement.

Our disposition of this case renders immaterial the scrivenor's error classifying Count II as a second degree felony rather than a third degree felony.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

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