BROWN v. STATE (2017)

Brandon BROWN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

CASE NO. 1D15–0013

Decided: July 26, 2017

Andy Thomas, Public Defender, and Barbara J. Busharis, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant. Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Samuel B. Steinberg, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

Appellant challenges his convictions and sentences for sexual battery on a child less than 12 years of age, lewd or lascivious molestation, and lewd or lascivious exhibition. The trial court ruled appellant was competent but failed to enter a written order. We, therefore, AFFIRM but REMAND for entry of a nunc pro tunc order adjudicating appellant competent to proceed. See Merriell v. State, 169 So.3d 1287, 1288–89 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015).

PER CURIAM.

WOLF, RAY, and BILBREY, JJ., CONCUR.
