Cato v. State

Cato v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 22, 1992 · Allen, Smith, Wolf
611 So. 2d 22; 1992 Fla. App. LEXIS 13581; 1992 WL 382642 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Cato v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The appellant challenges his habitual offender sentence, arguing that the court erred in failing to make the requisite findings under section 775.084, Florida Statutes. Because the appellant’s counsel acknowledged at the sentencing hearing that the appellant qualified for a habitual offender sentence, the necessity of specific findings under the statute was waived. See Robinson v. State, 605 So.2d 500 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992). The challenged sentence is therefore affirmed.

SMITH, ALLEN and WOLF, JJ., concur.
