Lemon v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District
Oct 28, 2005
913 So. 2d 730 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2005)

Opinion

No. 5D05-346.

October 28, 2005.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Lake County, William T. Swigert, Judge.

James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Kevin R. Holtz, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Allison Leigh Morris, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.


This is an appeal from a judgment and sentence entered by the trial court after the appellant, Raynaldo Lemon, pled guilty to a violation of the sexual offender registration law. Mr. Lemon has not moved to withdraw his plea, and may not, therefore, bring this direct appeal. See § 924.06(3), Fla. Stat. (2005); Fla. R.App. P. 9.140(b)(2)(A)(ii). See also Eisaman v. State, 440 So.2d 470 (Fla. 5th DCA 1983). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. Because of the peculiar circumstances of this case, however, we do so without prejudice in order to allow Mr. Lemon to have an opportunity to seek leave of the trial court to withdraw his guilty plea.

DISMISSED.

SAWAYA, PALMER and MONACO, JJ., concur.
