Averette v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 10, 2003 · Benton, Booth, Polston
841 So. 2d 555; 2003 Fla. App. LEXIS 3068; 2003 WL 885438 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Averette v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The appellant challenges the trial court’s order summarily denying his rule 3.800 *556motion for jail credit. The appellant has made a facially sufficient claim for jail credit under rule 3.800 by providing the dates for which he is seeking credit, the date of his sentence, and alleging that the jail certificate would show that he is entitled to credit. See Thomas v. State, 634 So.2d 175, 177 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994); State v. Mancino, 714 So.2d 429, 433 (Fla. 1998). The trial court failed to reference or attach any records refuting the appellant’s allegations. We accordingly reverse and remand for the trial court to support its denial with record attachments or to grant the relief sought.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

BOOTH, BENTON and POLSTON, JJ., concur.
