Linden v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District

687 So. 2d 25 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1996)

Opinion

Case No. 95-1922.

Opinion filed December 20, 1996. Rehearing Denied February 7, 1997.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Volusia County, John V. Doyle, Judge.

Stefan M. Linden, DeFuniak Springs, Pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Carmen F. Corrente, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.


Stefan Linden, pro se, appeals his conviction and sentence for the offense of battery on a law enforcement officer. We find no error in his conviction but the State concedes a sentencing error. Linden's scoresheet reflects a maximum sentence of 16.7 months. The trial court, without written reasons, sentenced him to 5 years in prison to be followed by probation. This was error and we reverse.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

COBB and GOSHORN, JJ., concur.
