Dunnavant v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 28, 1995 · Booth, Ervin, Webster
665 So. 2d 354; 1995 Fla. App. LEXIS 13404; 1995 WL 761190 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Dunnavant v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In this direct criminal appeal, appellant, a juvenile at the time the offenses of which he was convicted had been committed, seeks review of adult sentences imposed incident to those convictions. Because the trial court faded to inform appellant of his rights pursuant to section 39.059(7), Florida Statutes (1991), and to ensure on the record that any waiver of those rights was voluntarily and intelligently made, we are constrained to reverse, and to remand for resentencing. State v. Berry, 647 So.2d 830 (Fla. 1994). On remand, the trial court may again sentence appellant as an adult, provided that all applicable statutory requirements are satisfied. Troutman v. State, 630 So.2d 528 (Fla. 1993).

REVERSED and REMANDED, with directions.

ERVIN, BOOTH and WEBSTER, JJ., concur.
