Jacob Daniel Scanlon, Appellant, v. State of Florida, Appellee.
We affirm the order on appeal because the trial court's oral interpretation of an existing term of probation was not effective as a modification of Jacob Daniel Scanlon's probation. See § 948.039, Fla. Stat. (2025) (“The court shall impose the special terms and conditions by oral pronouncement at sentencing and include the terms and conditions in the written sentencing order.” (emphasis added)). We write only to clarify that, as the term under consideration is written, Scanlon is precluded only from residing within 1000 feet of “any school, daycare center, park, playground or other place where children regularly congregate,” which does not restrict him from visiting his parents’ home.
AFFIRMED.
PER CURIAM.
NARDELLA, WOZNIAK and GANNAM, JJ., concur.
