IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA FIFTH DISTRICT NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED

DAMON DICKERSON, Appellant, v. Case No. 5D17-2511 STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed February 2, 2018 3.850 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Lake County, Lawrence J. Semento, Judge.

Damon Dickerson, Lake City, pro se.

No Appearance for Appellee.

WALLIS, J.

Damon Dickerson appeals the summary denial of his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 motion for postconviction relief, where he alleged two grounds of ineffective assistance of counsel. Because Dickerson's motion was legally insufficient and it is not apparent that Dickerson cannot correct the defect, Dickerson is entitled to at least one opportunity to amend. See Spera v. State, 971 So. 2d 754, 761 (Fla. 2007); Lamb v. State, 202 So. 3d 118, 120 (Fla. 5th DCA 2016). Accordingly, we reverse and remand with instructions for the trial court to strike Dickerson's motion with leave to amend within a reasonable time.

REVERSE and REMAND with Instructions.

SAWAYA and BERGER, JJ., concur.
