Garcia v. State

784 So. 2d 550, 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 6177, 2001 WL 485227

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

We affirm appellant Jasinto Garcia’s judgment of conviction and sentence on all issues raised. Appellee concedes, and we agree, that the trial court erred in imposing a general sentence for both counts I and II. We remand for the trial court to impose a separate sentence for each count. See Parks v. State, 765 So.2d 35 (Fla.2000) (general sentences which include more than one count are improper and subject to correction as fundamental error); Cruz v. State, 674 So.2d 802 (Fla. 3d DCA 1996) (separate sentence should be imposed on each charge rather than a general sentence intended to cover both charges).

STONE, FARMER and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
