(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
State v. Sims
Opinion of the Court
The state appeals from a sentence of time served for the offense of burglary of a dwelling, which sentence constitutes a downward departure from the guidelines recommended sentence. No written reasons for the departure are contained in the record.
Accordingly, we reverse and remand with instructions to provide written reasons justifying the departure from the sentencing guidelines. Francis v. State, 512 So.2d 1162 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987).
