ARMSTRONG v. STATE (2024)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

Raytaurus ARMSTRONG, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Case No. 5D2024-0957

Decided: October 04, 2024

Raytaurus Armstrong, Madison, pro se. No Appearance for Appellee.

Appellant sought relief pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). Appellant appealed the trial court's summary dismissal of his 3.800 motion as successive. We reverse and remand with instructions for the postconviction court to either attach to its order Appellant's three prior motions and their accompanying orders pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a)(2), or to review and address the merits of the motion. Our reversal should not be construed or interpreted by the postconviction court as indicating that we have determined, on the merits, that Armstrong is entitled to relief on his motion. See Jones v. State, 198 So. 3d 920, 921 (Fla. 5th DCA 2016).

REVERSED and REMANDED with instructions.

Per Curiam.

Edwards, C.J., and Kilbane and MacIver, JJ., concur.
