WILLIAMS v. STATE (2019)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

Jude Michael WILLIAMS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Case No. 5D18-408

Decided: July 26, 2019

James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Edward J. Weiss, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Kellie A. Nielan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

After careful and thorough review, we affirm as to all but one issue raised in this appeal. We agree that the trial court erred in failing to include in its written sentencing order that Appellant, a juvenile at the time he committed the crimes of first-degree murder and armed burglary, is entitled to a judicial review of his sentence. Accordingly, we reverse only as to that issue and remand solely for entry of a corrected judgment and sentence providing for a judicial sentence review hearing after twenty-five years from the date of his original sentencing in accordance with section 921.1402(2)(a), Florida Statutes (2018). See Robinson v. State, 249 So.3d 791, 792 (Fla. 5th DCA 2018).

AFFIRMED IN PART, REVERSED IN PART, AND REMANDED WITH INSTRUCTIONS.

PER CURIAM.

LAMBERT, EDWARDS and GROSSHANS, JJ., concur.
