Hester v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 10, 1999 · Blue, Patterson, Whatley
730 So. 2d 747; 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 2472; 1999 WL 122806 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Hester v. State

Opinion of the Court

BLUE, Judge.

Craig Hester appeals the trial court’s denial of credit for time at liberty following his premature release. Because Hester’s premature release cannot be attributed to “fault” on Hester’s part, we reverse. See Carson v. State, 489 So.2d 1236 (Fla. 2d DCA 1986).

Reversed and remanded.

PATTERSON, A.C.J., and WHATLEY, J., Concur.
