Griffin v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 31, 2001 · Cope, Goderich, Shevin
798 So. 2d 828; 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 15256; 2001 WL 1334723 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Griffin v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

James Allen Griffin appeals an order denying his postconviction motion whereby he seeks credit for jail time served prior to sentencing. We affirm the order denying relief. The plea colloquy in this case was very specific that the defendant was waiving any claim for credit for time served prior to sentencing. Such a waiver is permissible in a plea bargain. Wade v. State, 776 So.2d 1082, 1082 (Fla. 3d DCA 2001); Cozza v. State, 756 So.2d 272, 273-74 (Fla. 3d DCA 2000).

Affirmed.
