Opinion

No. 88-2244.

April 18, 1989.

An Appeal from the Circuit Court of Dade County; Arthur Rothenberg, Judge.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Cynthia A. Everett, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellant.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Rosa C. Figarola, Asst. Public Defender, for appellee.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HUBBART and COPE, JJ.


This is an appeal by the state from a sentence which departs downward from the sentencing guidelines. Upon the defendant Manuel Guzman's confession of error, we reverse the sentence under review and remand the cause to the trial court with directions to enter written reasons for the downward departure sentence. See, e.g., State v. Wayda, 533 So.2d 939 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988); State v. Adams, 528 So.2d 548 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988).

Reversed and remanded.
