Rivera v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 28, 2006 · Cortinas, Green, Ramirez
937 So. 2d 1118; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 10706; 2006 WL 1751876 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Rivera v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal of an order summarily denying a motion under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). On appeal from a summary denial, this court must reverse unless the postconviction record shows conclusively that the appellant is entitled to no relief. See Fla. RApp. P. 9.141(b)(2)(A) & (D).

Because the record now before us fails to make the required showing, we reverse the order and remand for a hearing or for the attachment of record excerpts conclusively showing that the appellant is not entitled to any relief. See Fla. R.App. P. 9.141(b)(2)(A) & (D); see also Fla. R.Crim. P. 3.850(d).

Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
