Campbell v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided September 4, 2009 · Fulmer, Larose, Crenshaw
16 So. 3d 316; 2009 Fla. App. LEXIS 12888; 2009 WL 2835208 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Campbell v. State

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Larry Campbell, Jr., appeals the denial of his motion challenging the legality of his consecutive sentences for false imprisonment and sexual battery with slight force. See Fla. R.Crim. P. 3.800(a). The postcon-viction court concluded that the motion was procedurally barred. In light of our decision in Williams v. State, 685 So.2d 55 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996), we reverse with directions for the postconviction court to dispose of the motion on the merits or to attach documents demonstrating that Mr. Campbell’s consecutive sentences do not constitute a manifest injustice. See Brinson v. State, 995 So.2d 1047, 1049 (Fla. 2d DCA 2008).

Reversed and remanded with instructions.

FULMER, LaROSE, and CRENSHAW, JJ., Concur.
