Case No. 96-1936
Opinion filed July 23, 1997
Appeal from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County; Melanie May, Judge; L.T. Case No. 96-1616DL.
Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Christine Sciarrino, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Diana K. Bock, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
We affirm Appellant's battery conviction, but remand for the trial court to correct Appellant's sentence to specify the maximum length of term of commitment, rather than doing so solely by reference to the juvenile statute, section 39.054(4), Florida Statutes (1995). A.S. v. State, 677 So.2d 1002 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996); M.S. v. State, 675 So.2d 215 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996).
STONE, C.J., WARNER and POLEN, JJ., concur.
