Mattison v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 8, 2009 · Wells, Rothenberg, Schwartz
7 So. 3d 621; 2009 Fla. App. LEXIS 2878; 2009 WL 928632 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Mattison v. State

Opinion

WELLS, J.

Desmond Mattison appeals from an order summarily denying his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a) motion for additional credit for time served. 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. R. App. P. 9.141(b)(2)(A), (D).

Because the record now before us fails to conclusively refute the defendant’s claim, we reverse the order and remand for further proceedings. If the trial court again enters an order summarily denying the motion, the court shall attach record excerpts conclusively showing that the appellant is entitled to no relief. See Taylor v. State, 970 So.2d 370, 371 (Fla. 3d DCA 2007); Dorn v. State, 928 So.2d 507, 508 (Fla. 3d DCA 2006); Lee v. State, 907 So.2d 1264,1265 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005).

Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
