Sullo v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District
Nov 29, 1995
663 So. 2d 11 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1995)

Opinion

No. 95-2587.

November 29, 1995.

Appeal of order denying rule 3.800(a) motion from the Circuit Court for Broward County; Paul L. Backman, Judge.

William J. Sullo, Jasper, pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Don M. Rogers, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


Appellant seeks review of an order summarily denying his rule 3.800(a) motion. Following Fountain v. State, 660 So.2d 376 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995), we reverse the trial court's order and remand for further proceedings. If the record can answer the question of whether appellant is entitled to jail time credit, the rule 3.800(a) motion is appropriate for seeking relief. If that fact cannot be determined from the record, the rule 3.800(a) motion should be denied.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

DELL, KLEIN and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
