Wright v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 22, 2010 · Padovano, Roberts, Marstiller
48 So. 3d 926; 2010 Fla. App. LEXIS 17925; 2010 WL 4705104 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Wright v. State

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The appellant appeals the summary denial of his motion to correct illegal sentence filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). We affirm the denial of grounds one through six. However, we reverse and remand the denial of ground seven and direct the trial court to strike that portion of the appellant’s sentence imposing a $5,000 fine. See King v. State, 681 So.2d 1136 (Fla. 1996) (holding that a trial court may not impose a fine under section 775.083 when imposing a habitual felony offender sentence under section 775.084), receded from on other grounds in Carter v. State, 786 So.2d 1173 (Fla. 2001).

AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED AND REMANDED in part.

PADOVANO, ROBERTS, and MARSTILLER, JJ., concur.
