Betz v. State

712 So. 2d 778, 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 6508, 1998 WL 288387

Opinion

W. SHARP, Judge.

We affirm the trial court’s summary denial of Betz’ motion for post-conviction relief filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. The trial court properly sentenced Betz to consecutive sentences, which combined together fell within the sentencing guidelines range. See Branam v. State, 554 So.2d 512 (Fla.1990). Further, Betz’ claim that there was no factual basis for this plea with regard to counts four and six¹ is refuted by the attached excerpt of the probable cause affidavit in this case, which reflects Betz confessed to the commission of these offenses after receiving Miranda² warnings.

AFFIRMED.

GRIFFIN, C.J., and THOMPSON, J„ concur.
