State v. Arnold
State v. Arnold
948 So. 2d 910; 2007 Fla. App. LEXIS 1797; 2007 WL 460649
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
State v. Arnold
Opinion of the Court
The State appeals the imposition of a downward departure sentence after appel-lee, Brian Keith Arnold, was convicted of carrying a concealed firearm and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Because the trial court did not provide any valid legal reason for departure that is supported by competent, substantial record evidence, we REVERSE and REMAND for resentencing. See Demoss v. State, 843 So.2d 309, 311 (Fla. 1st DCA 2003) (citing Banks v. State, 732 So.2d 1065, 1067 (Fla. 1999)).
