State v. Rodriguez
707 So. 2d 942; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 2647; 1998 WL 191138
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
State v. Rodriguez
Opinion of the Court
We reverse because the trial court was without authority to deviate from the mandatory minimum sentence required under section 893.13(l)(c)l, Florida Statutes (1995), which provides that a person convicted of violating it “must be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 3 calendar years.” See State v. Swider, 654 So.2d 562 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995); State v. Randall, 627 So.2d 571 (Fla. 2d DCA 1993); Hill v. State, 624 So.2d 826 (Fla. 2d DCA 1993). On remand, appellee must be given an opportunity to withdraw her plea, if she desires to do so. See State v. Nichols, 536 So.2d 1052 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988).
