Florida District Courts of Appeal, 1981

Brown v. State

Brown v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 2, 1981 · Grimes, Ott, Schoonover
406 So. 2d 1232; 1981 Fla. App. LEXIS 21829 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Brown v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed. The sole issue raised on appeal is whether appellant’s sentence is illegal under Villery v. Florida Parole & Probation Commission, 396 So.2d 1107 (Fla. 1981). This point is raised for the first time on appeal, and because Villery suggests that our supreme court contemplated that this issue be brought to the attention of the trial court in the first instance, we do not consider it on this appeal. However, this affirmance is without prejudice to appellant’s raising this issue in the trial court by filing a motion pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850.

GRIMES, A. C. J., and OTT and SCHOONOVER, JJ., concur.
