FARNWORTH v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 26, 2010 · Polen, Damoorgian, Levine
34 So. 3d 251; 2010 Fla. App. LEXIS 7312; 2010 WL 2076969 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

FARNWORTH v. State

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Gregory Farnworth appeals the trial court’s order that summarily denied his rule 3.850 motion. Three of the points were denied “without prejudice.” Spera v. State, 971 So.2d 754 (Fla. 2007). However, the order provided that Farnworth had thirty days to file an appeal. No provision was made to permit an amended filing.

We reverse the order on appeal and remand for the entry of a non-final order that gives Mr. Farnworth reasonable time to attempt to amend those points. See Lawrence v. State, 987 So.2d 157 (Fla. 2d DCA 2008). Should Farnworth fail to *252 amend, the trial court may enter a final order disposing of all claims.

Reversed and remanded.

POLEN, DAMOORGIAN and LEVINE, JJ., concur.
