Jessie v. State
Jessie v. State
714 So. 2d 1220; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 10137; 1998 WL 472563
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Jessie v. State
Opinion of the Court
The only issue raised by appellant on appeal is whether the trial court erred in sentencing him to five-and-one-half years’ imprisonment upon revocation of his community control in Case No. 91-16683, since the maximum sentence for his 1991 offenses of burglary of a structure and grand theft is five years. The State concedes that even with bump-ups for violation of community control, appellant’s sentence in that case exceeded the maximum permitted by statute. See Fla. R.Crim. P. 3.701(d)(10) (1991). Accordingly, appellant’s sentence in Case No. 91-16683 is reversed and remanded for resentencing.
