Lewis v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided January 11, 2006 · Gersten, Green, Ramirez
919 So. 2d 577; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 126; 2006 WL 47505 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Lewis v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This is a petition for belated appeal of an order denying appellant Troy Lewis’ motion to correct sentence. Because Lewis’ entitlement to a belated appeal depends upon a determination of a disputed factual issue, we remand this cause to the trial court for an evidentiary hearing as to whether Lewis requested his trial counsel to file an appeal in accordance with State v. Trowell, 739 So.2d 77 (Fla. 1999).

Reversed and remanded with instructions.
