Opinion

SIXTH DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA _____________________________

Case No. 6D2024-1454 Lower Tribunal No. 2023-CF-1 _____________________________

ALVIN VIANI FREEMAN,

Appellant,

v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

Appellee. _____________________________

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Hendry County. James D. Sloan, Judge.

August 8, 2025

PER CURIAM.

Alvin Freeman appeals the trial court’s revocation of his probation and

challenges the denial of his motion to suppress. Freeman also raises what he deems

to be a scrivener’s error in the probation revocation order. We find no error in the

denial of Freeman’s motion to suppress and therefore affirm. We decline to reach

the merits of Freeman’s additional claim that the revocation order contains a

scrivener’s error because that claim is not preserved for our review and does not

constitute fundamental error. See Thomas v. State, 725 So. 2d 1148, 1149 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998) (citing § 924.051, Fla. Stat. (1996)), approved, 763 So. 2d 316 (Fla.

2000).

AFFIRMED.

STARGEL, NARDELLA and BROWNLEE, JJ., concur.

Blair Allen, Public Defender, and Robert D. Rosen, Assistant Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.

James Uthmeier, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and William A. Leto, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.

NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF TIMELY FILED
