JULIAN WATTS, APPELLANT,
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE
580 So. 2d 899
Florida District Court of Appeal, Second District (1991)
Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
The appellant correctly contends that the trial court erred by applying the permitted guidelines sentencing range when sentencing for an offense that occurred before the permitted ranges came into effect. Washington v. State, 564 So. 2d 168 (Fla. 5th DCA 1990). Accordingly, we affirm the appellant’s conviction for second degree murder but vacate the sentence. Upon remand, the court may consider imposing a departure sentence. See Fernandez v. State, 564 So. 2d 272 (Fla. 2d DCA 1990).
