Looney v. State

728 So. 2d 321, 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 2161, 1999 WL 95031
District Court of Appeal of Florida·Decided February 26, 1999·No. No. 97-04117·Published·Cited by 1 cases

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Steven Looney challenges his sentence for carrying a concealed firearm. He correctly contends that it was error for the trial court to assess eighteen additional sentencing points for possessing a firearm where the underlying crime was carrying a concealed firearm. See White v. State, 714 So.2d 440 (Fla.1998). The State concedes error but contends that it is harmless error because Looney’s sentence, with a corrected score-sheet, would be unchanged. Although we agree with the State that the sentence Looney is now serving would not change, the scoresheet error could affect a subsequent sentence should Looney violate his probation. Accordingly, we remand with instructions to the trial court to correct the scoresheet.

Sentence affirmed; remanded with instructions to correct the scoresheet.
