State v. Siddal

State v. Siddal
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 24, 1999 · Fletcher, Schwartz, Shevin
728 So. 2d 363; 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 3428; 1999 WL 157087 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Siddal

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Although we understand the trial court’s intentions in imposing a downward departure sentence, the State’s position is correct and the downward departure is not legally sustainable. As a consequence, we reverse the trial court’s order and remand for resentenc-ing within the sentencing guidelines. See State v. Whiting, 711 So.2d 1212 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998).

Reversed and remanded for resentencing.
