Reynolds v. State

Opinion of the Court

DAUKSCH, Judge.

This is an appeal from a sentencing guidelines departure. The trial judge departed upwards because the defendant is an habitual offender. This is not a sufficient reason for departure. Whitehead v. State, 498 So.2d 863 (Fla. 1986).

SENTENCE QUASHED; REVERSED.

UPCHURCH, C.J., and COBB, J., concur.
