WHITE v. STATE (2020)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

Leonard Jerome WHITE Jr., Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Case No. 5D19-2475

Decided: October 30, 2020

James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Susan A. Fagan, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Richard A. Pallas, Jr., Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

Leonard Jerome White, Jr. appeals the judgment and sentence entered by the trial court after a jury found him guilty of carjacking with a firearm, aggravated assault with a firearm, and felony fleeing or attempting to elude. We affirm in all respects, but remand for entry of a nunc pro tunc written order adjudicating him competent to proceed based upon the court's independent determination of White's competence. See Davis v. State, 239 So. 3d 202, 202 (Fla. 5th DCA 2018).

AFFIRMED; REMANDED with directions.

PER CURIAM.

EVANDER, C.J., EISNAUGLE and TRAVER, JJ., concur.
