Richardson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 11, 2014 · Crenshaw, Northcutt, Silberman
161 So. 3d 457; 2014 WL 2601592; 2014 Fla. App. LEXIS 8873 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Richardson v. State

Opinion of the Court

NORTHCUTT, Judge.

Andrew Richardson appeals the postcon-viction court’s order denying his motion for postconviction relief filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. Because Richardson alleged he received a mandatory sentence of life without the possibility of parole for a first-degree murder he committed at the age of seventeen, we reverse the postconviction court’s order summarily denying the claim as untimely and remand the case for further proceedings consistent with Toye v. State, 133 So.3d 540 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014), and Miller v. Alabama, — U.S. —, 132 S.Ct. 2455, 183 L.Ed.2d 407 (2012).

Reversed and remanded.

SILBERMAN and CRENSHAW, JJ, Concur.
