Butler v. Jones

1 Citing case

  1. Chandler v. Fla. Dep't of Corr.

    308 So. 3d 219 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2020)   Cited 1 times

    The sentencing court's directive that Chandler's 2009 VOP sentence "shall" run consecutively to the 2015 sentence required the Department to calculate Chandler's release date in the manner it did. We are aware of our decision in Butler v. Jones , 225 So. 3d 923 (Fla. 1st DCA 2017), where we reversed the dismissal of a prisoner's challenge to the Department's calculation of his tentative release date under the sentences imposed. In Butler , the circuit court dismissed the petition for lack of jurisdiction over what the court deemed a collateral attack on the sentences.
