Glover v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 28, 1992 · Frank, Patterson, Threadgill
598 So. 2d 85; 1992 Fla. App. LEXIS 2212; 1992 WL 35390 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Glover v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Willie J. Glover, Jr., timely appeals the summary denial of his motion to allow credit for jail time. Although the trial judge denied the motion without an evidentiary hearing, he did not attach to his order any portion of the files or records to refute appellant’s allegations.

Accordingly, we reverse the trial court’s denial of appellant’s motion and remand the case to the trial court. On remand, unless the files and records of the case conclusively show that the prisoner is entitled to no relief, the court shall order the state attorney to file an answer within a time certain. After receipt of the answer, the court shall determine whether an evi-dentiary hearing is required. If the court should again deny appellant’s motion, he has thirty days in which to appeal.

Reversed and remanded.

FRANK, A.C.J., and THREADGILL and PATTERSON, JJ., concur.
