Hugger v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Richard Willie Hugger was charged with and a jury found him guilty of second-degree murder. The trial court departed from the recommended guidelines range of twelve to seventeen years and sentenced Hugger to life imprisonment. None of the reasons for which the trial court departed are valid. Accordingly, we reverse Hug-ger’s sentence and remand for resentenc-ing within the guidelines. See Williams v. State, 492 So.2d 1308 (Fla. 1986).

DANAHY, C.J., and LEHAN and FRANK, JJ., concur.
