Benjamin v. State
161 So. 3d 581; 2014 Fla. App. LEXIS 19621; 2014 WL 6790030
(Southern Reporter, Third Series)
Benjamin v. State
Opinion
Joquinn Anthony Tavarus Benjamin seeks review of his judgment and sentence for second degree murder while in possession of a firearm. Counsel for Benjamin filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and the State has elected not to file a brief. We affirm but remand for correction of a scrivener’s error in the judgment that erroneously lists a conviction for second degree murder while discharging a firearm and cites to the corresponding subsection of section 775.087, Florida Statutes (2011). The jury specifically found that Benjamin had not discharged the firearm.
Affirmed and remanded.
