Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 6, 2017 · Lewis, Wetherell, Wolf
219 So. 3d 1000; 2017 WL 2438339; 2017 Fla. App. LEXIS 8124 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Anderson v. State

Opinion of the Court

WOLF, J.

Appellant raises two issues on appeal. We find only one issue has merit; we agree with appellant that the trial court erred when it failed to enter a written order adjudicating appellant competent to proceed before allowing appellant to represent himself in a bench trial. Therefore, we AFFIRM appellant’s judgment and sentence, but REMAND for the trial court to enter a written order of competency nunc *1001pro tunc. Mullens v. State, 197 So.3d 16, 37 (Fla. 2016).
