Ande Kibwika, Milton, pro se.
Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Melanie Dale Surber, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
Ande Kibwika appeals an order denying his motion for jail credit filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800.Double The motion is legally sufficient and warrants further review. Kibwika pointed to the dates referenced within the probable cause affidavit and the final disposition following his trial. Significantly, he alleged that he was never released on bond. Consequently, Kibwika met his burden to demonstrate entitlement to relief on the face of the record. See Johnson v. State, 60 So.3d 1045, 1051 (Fla.2011). See also Green v. State, 979 So.2d 395, 395–96 (Fla. 2d DCA 2008).
Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
