ELIZABETH SIMMONS, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 2002-02-26
No. 1D01-3094
ALLEN, C.J., MINER and WEBSTER, JJ., concur.
807 So. 2d 800 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (2002) Positive Treatment
Cited by 4 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

The appellant challenges the order by which the trial court summarily denied her Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 motion. Because the record does not conclusively refute the appellant’s colorable claims that her pleas were entered as a consequence of her counsel’s erroneous advice as to the amount of time she would actually serve after application of jail credit and gain time, we reverse the order under review and remand this case to the trial court for an evidentiary hearing on the appellant’s claims.

ALLEN, C.J., MINER and WEBSTER, JJ., concur.
