Johnson v. State
Johnson v. State
Opinion of the Court
Johnson appeals his sentence after a jury convicted him of two counts of robbery with a firearm or deadly weapon.
A conflict appears to exist between the oral pronouncement of the court and the written sentence as to whether the court intended to sentence Johnson as an adult or as a youthful offender. If the latter, the sentence imposed exceeds the permissible length for youthful offender sanctions. See State v. Arnette, 604 So.2d 482 (Fla. 1992); Lee v. State, 667 So.2d 253 (Fla. 1st DCA 1995), approved, 679 So.2d 1158 (Fla. 1996).
Accordingly, we remand this cause to the trial court for clarification. See Tory v. State, 686 So.2d 689 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996).
REMANDED for clarification.
