EDUARDO TOSCO, APPELLANT,
v.
THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 3d DCA | 1998-12-30
No. 98-1847
Before JORGENSON, GERSTEN and SHEVIN, JJ.
724 So. 2d 1223 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1998) Positive Treatment

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Eduardo Tosco appeals the denial of his Rule 3.800(a) motion to correct a score-sheet error. The state concedes that upon Tosco’s revocation of probation, the score-sheet incorrectly reflected that the primary offense was a first degree felony rather than a second degree felony. A corrected score-sheet would have resulted in the lower recommended range of 12 to 17 years, and a permitted range of 9 to 22 years. It appears that the court denied Tosco’s motion based on the mistaken assumption that this issue was not cognizable by way of a 3.800(a) motion. “Rule 3.800(a) still allows a court to correct ‘an incorrect calculation made by it in a sentencing guidelines scoresheet’ at any time....” Johnson v. State, 702 So. 2d 247, 248 (Fla. 4th DCA 1997) (citing Fla. R.Crim. P. 3.800(a)). “Because the erroneous score-sheet calculation herein is apparent on the face of the record, it is reviewable under a rule 3.800 motion.” Glanton v. State, 705 So. 2d 945, 946 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998).

Based on this reasoning, we reverse the order and remand for reconsideration of the motion on the merits.

Reversed and remanded.

State, 724 So. 2d 1223 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998). Aiken relies on Blanchard, wherein this court stated: The same act that constitutes the crime of false imprisonment (grabbing and holding the hand of the victim), also constitutes the crime of battery.
