Supreme Court of Florida
Sanders v. State of Florida, SC09-1729
Trial court's conclusion that defendant's third-degree felony offenses, for which he had completed his prison sentences and probation, should have been scored as additional offenses on the scoresheet used in the 2006 sentencing upon the revocation of defendant's probation is quashed and remanded as, offenses over which the trial court no longer has jurisdiction cannot be scored as additional offenses during a sentencing proceeding following a violation of probation because they do not fit the definition of "additional offense" set out in section 921.0021, Florida Statutes (1999).
