Jordan v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided September 3, 2003 · Cope, Gersten, Green
853 So. 2d 558; 2003 Fla. App. LEXIS 13194; 2003 WL 22047330 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Jordan v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Vernon Jordan (“defendant”) appeals an order resentencing him, on the ground that he was sentenced without counsel present. The state properly concedes that the resentencing of the defendant without the benefit of counsel was error. See Spivey v. State, 829 So.2d 386 (Fla. 3d DCA 2002); Smith v. State, 820 So.2d 1052 (Fla. 3d DCA 2002).

*559Accordingly, we remand this case for resentencing, at which time the defendant will present and represented by the Public Defender.

Reversed and remanded for resentenc-ing.
