Brown v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 21, 1998 · Antoon, Dauksch, Griffin
715 So. 2d 1142; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 10478; 1998 WL 518538 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Brown v. State

Opinion of the Court

GRIFFIN, Chief Judge.

The defendant was convicted of three offenses in 1990: burglary of a dwelling, grand theft and dealing in stolen property. He had a substantial prior felony record. Defendant was given a guidelines sentence on counts I and II and a habitual offender sentence on count III. The scoresheet erroneously scored the count III offense as the primary offense at conviction. The defendant filed a Rule 3.800 motion to correct the scoring error and was granted relief. The scoresheet was recalculated and he was resentenced on counts I and II. The defendant contends that he was also entitled to be resentenced on count III because the erroneous scoresheet used for counts I and II may somehow have affected the sentencing decision on count III. We find this argument to be completely without merit and affirm.

AFFIRMED.

DAUKSCH and ANTOON, JJ., concur.
