Bowman v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 4, 2016 · Larose, Silberman, Sleet

Bowman v. State

Opinion

LaROSE, Judge.

Robert Whitney Bowman appeals his judgments and sentences. He pleaded no contest to charges of criminal use of personal identification (count one) and grand theft (count two). The trial court sentenced Mr. Bowman to thirty months in prison for count one, to run .concurrently with thirty months in prison for count two. At sentencing, the trial court awarded Mr. Bowman ninety-two (92) days of jail credit for time served on count one. The written judgment and sentence is silent as to whether the jail credit is for one or both counts.

Mr. Bowman argues that the trial court erred in sentencing him. 1 Specifically, he contends that, the trial court should have awarded jail credit for both counts. See Daniels v. State, 491 So.2d 643, 545 (Fla. 1986) (“[Wjhen ... a defendant'receives [presentence] jail-time credit on a sentence that is to run concurrently with other sentences, those sentences must also reflect the credit for time served.”); Ransone v. State, 48 So.3d 692, 694 (Fla. 2010).

We reverse and remand for the trial court to sentence Mr. Bowman accordingly-

Reversed and remanded.
