CHOCTAW v. State

37 So. 3d 988, 2010 Fla. App. LEXIS 9762, 2010 WL 2634416

Opinion

KHOUZAM, Judge.

Annie Choctaw appeals her judgments and sentences for delivery of cocaine and possession of cocaine in circuit court case number 09-CF-246, and possession, of cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia in circuit court case number 09-CF-247. Choctaw was sentenced as a habitual felony offender to concurrent sentences of 16.2 months’ imprisonment for delivery of cocaine and possession of cocaine in case number 09-CF-246. Choctaw correctly argues, and the State concedes, that the trial court erred in imposing a habitual felony offender sentence for the offense of possession of cocaine. See § 775.084(l)(a)(3), Fla. Stat. (2008); Bass v. State, 894 So.2d 303, 303 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005).

Accordingly, we reverse and remand for the trial court to strike Choctaw’s designation as a habitual felony offender from her sentence for possession of cocaine in case number 09-CF-246. Choctaw’s remaining judgments and sentences are otherwise affirmed.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.
