Perillo v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

A trial court may not use as a reason to enhance a criminal sentence an element that has already been factored into the sentencing guidelines. State v. Mischler, 488 So.2d 523 (Fla. 1986). Therefore, the sentence under review is reversed with directions to resentence the defendant within the appropriate guidelines.

Reversed and remanded with directions.
