Godwin v. State

Opinion

679 So.2d 362 (1996)

Tess L. GODWIN, Appellant,
v.
STATE of Florida, Appellee.

No. 96-2351.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

September 12, 1996.

Tess L. Godwin, Lowell, pro se.

No Appearance for Appellee.

*363 PER CURIAM.

Defendant appeals the summary denial of her 3.800 motion to correct sentence. Defendant asserts in the 3.800 motion that the trial court entered a departure sentence without providing written reasons. This sentencing error must be raised on direct appeal, and it is not cognizable in a post-conviction motion. See Davis v. State, 661 So.2d 1193 (Fla. 1995).

AFFIRMED.

COBB, GOSHORN and GRIFFIN, JJ., concur.
