623 So. 2d 1253 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1993)

Opinion

No. 92-04695.

October 1, 1993.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County; Diana M. Allen, Judge.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Dale E. Tarpley, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellant.

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Cecilia A. Traina, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellee.


We are required to remand this case for resentencing because the trial court, in imposing a sentence beneath that recommended by the sentencing guidelines, failed to provide contemporaneous written reasons in support of the departure. See, e.g., State v. Dreyer, 594 So.2d 327 (Fla. 2d DCA), rev. dismissed, 605 So.2d 1263 (Fla. 1992).

Reversed.

SCHOONOVER, A.C.J., and THREADGILL and BLUE, JJ., concur.
