POMPEE v. STATE (2020)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

Harold POMPEE, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.

No. 3D19-2277

Decided: January 22, 2020

Before LINDSEY, HENDON, and MILLER, JJ.

Harold Pompee, in proper person. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, for appellee.

Harold Pompee appeals from the trial court's summary denial of his motion to correct an illegal sentence filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). The defendant's 2013 sentence is not illegal, and thus he is not entitled to relief under that rule. Furthermore, the record conclusively refutes the defendant's claim that he was sentenced pursuant to chapter 916, Florida Statutes (2013), as he was found to be competent at the time he accepted the negotiated plea. We therefore affirm the trial court's denial of the defendant's motion to correct an illegal sentence.

Affirmed.

HENDON, J.
