Anthony Lamar PRESSLEY, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
In this Anders 1 appeal in which appellant's competency due to intellectual disability was at issue during the entire proceedings—a matter unpreserved by counsel as dispositive prior to entry of the plea—we affirm the judgment and sentence but without prejudice to the appellant's opportunity to file a rule 3.850 motion to challenge his plea as involuntary. See Williams v. State, 134 So. 3d 975, 977 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012) (Benton, J., concurring).
AFFIRMED.
