Holmes v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided September 4, 1998 · Larry, Miner, Smith, Webster
742 So. 2d 293; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 11298; 1998 WL 559029 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Holmes v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Because appellant will serve no more than 15 years on count 1 and no more than 12 years on count 2, neither sentence exceeds the 15-year statutory maximum, and both are permissible, “true split sentences.” See State v. Powell, 703 So.2d 444 (Fla. 1997); Poore v. State, 531 So.2d 161 (Fla. 1988).

AFFIRMED.

MINER and WEBSTER, JJ., and SMITH, LARRY G., Senior Judge, concur.
