Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Upon a complaint by The Florida Bar this Court appointed a referee to conduct a hearing regarding Rightmyer’s alleged misconduct. Rightmyer tendered a conditional guilty plea for consent judgment,* acknowledging his violation of Florida Bar Code of Professional Responsibility, Disciplinary Rules 1-102(A)(4) and 6-101(A)(3). The referee recommended that Rightmyer be found guilty in accordance with his conditional plea and that he be given a public reprimand.

Neither side contests the referee’s report which we hereby adopt. Publication of this opinion in Southern Reporter will serve as the public reprimand.

Judgment for costs in the amount of $648.54 is hereby entered against respondent, for which sum let execution issue.

It is so ordered.

ADKINS, Acting C.J., and OVERTON, MCDONALD, EHRLICH and BARKETT, JJ., concur. *

We feel it unnecessary to publish the full text of the plea. The Court file is open for inspection.

    …neous sentencing scoresheet. We have previously required that defendants contemporaneously object to alleged sentencing errors in the scoresheet if the error is based upon disputed factual matters. See Montague, 682 So. 2d at 1085; Dailey v. State, 488 So. 2d 532, 534 (Fla.1986). Even in those cases involving scoresheet errors apparent from the record, we have previously held that “it does not necessarily follow that all cases involving scoresheet errors must be automatically reversed for resentencing.” Stat…

    …or to July 1, 1996, the error would have been correctable on direct appeal despite the absence of preservation in the trial court. See, e.g., State v. Montague, 682 So. 2d 1085 (Fla.1996); Taylor v. State, 601 So. 2d 540 (Fla.1992); Dailey v. State, 488 So. 2d 532 (Fla.1986); State v. Rhoden, 448 So. 2d 1013 (Fla.1984). But unpreserved sentencing errors are no longer correctable on direct appeal merely because they are apparent from the face of the record. Consistent with section 924.051(3) and (4), Florida S…

In Whitfield the supreme court amended rule 3.800(a), Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, to permit a court to correct guideline scoresheet errors at any time. However, as pointed out in Dailey v. State, 488 So. 2d 532 (Fla.1986), the scoresheet error in Whitfield was readily apparent from the face of the record. Since Whitfield had been convicted of aggravated assault, it was incorrect as a matter of law to add points for “victim injury” because injury is not an…
