Meyers v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District
Mar 1, 1985
464 So. 2d 189 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1985)

Opinion

No. 83-2407.

February 8, 1985. Rehearing Denied March 1, 1985.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Polk County; Edward F. Threadgill, Jr., Judge.

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and David Dwiggins, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Davis G. Anderson, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


We find error only in the trial court's retention of jurisdiction over one-half of appellant's sentence. In accordance with this court's opinion in Hayes v. State, 448 So.2d 84 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984), on motion to modify mandate, 452 So.2d 656 (1984), we remand this case to the trial court for correction of the sentence to reflect the trial court's retention of jurisdiction over only one-third of the sentence.

Appellant's judgment and sentence is otherwise AFFIRMED.

GRIMES, A.C.J., and DANAHY, J., and BOARDMAN, EDWARD F., (Ret.) J., concur.
