OVERTON, Judge.
We have for review Harris v. State, 608 So. 2d 847 (Fla.3d DCA 1992), in which the district court addressed the same question we recently answered in State v. Johnson, 616 So. 2d 1 (Fla.1993).1 In accordance with our decision in Johnson, we quash in part, the decision of the district court in the instant case. Nevertheless, we approve Harris’s sentence. The record in this case reflects that none of the amendments to section 775.084, Florida Statutes, contained in chapter 89-280 affected Harris’s sentence. Consequently, we approve the result of the district court’s decision because Harris’s sentence is not altered by our decision in Johnson.
It is so ordered.
BARKETT, C.J., and McDONALD, SHAW, GRIMES, KOGAN and HARDING, JJ., concur. . We have juridiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.

Chavez v. State, 132 So. 3d 826 (Fla. 2014)…nfidentiality. (Emphasis supplied.) This Court has stated that “[n]o aspect of clemency powers [*831] exist[s] by virtue of a legislative enactment, and none could. These powers are ‘derived’ solely from the Constitution.” Parole Comm’n v. Lockett, 620 So. 2d 153, 157 (Fla.1993) (quoting In re Advisory Op. to the Governor, In re Admin. Procedure Act, Exec. Clemency, 334 So. 2d 561, 562 (Fla.1976) (footnote omitted)). Thus, to the extent section 14.28 could be read to exclude certain clemency materials from c…

Asay v. Fla. Parole Comm'n, 649 So. 2d 859 (Fla. 1994)…s a case, of first impression. Moreover, the federal Brady issue, and it alone, is dispositive of this case because Florida constitutional law exempts clemency records from any disclosure not authorized by the Governor. Parole Commission v. Lockett, 620 So. 2d 153 (Fla.1993). Absent contrary federal law applicable to Florida via the Fourteenth Amendment, petitioners clearly are entitled to no relief. The Ritchie opinion comes closest in relevance. However, even it dealt with facts so distinct from those at i…1 / 2
