ROBERT J. WRIGHT, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1997-04-14
No. 96-872
MINER, ALLEN and PADOVANO, JJ., concur.
691 So. 2d 1140 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1997) Positive Treatment
Cited by 4 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

The appellant’s conviction is affirmed, but his habitual felony offender sentences are vacated. As the state concedes, prior offenses for which adjudication was withheld may not serve as a predicate for such habitual offender status where the prior probationary period was completed before the present offense was committed. E.g., Gauthier v. State, 605 So. 2d 1284 (Fla.App. 1st DCA 1992). The case is remanded for resentencing.

MINER, ALLEN and PADOVANO, JJ., concur.

Thus, a prior offense, for which the defendant received a withhold of adjudication and probation and had completed probation, could not be counted as a prior conviction. Wright v. State, 691 So. 2d 1140 (Fla. 1st DCA1997). Here, the 1992 case record shows that the defendant received a withhold of adjudication and completed his probation prior to committing the 1996 charges. The 1992 case, therefore, could not be counted as one of the two sequentia…
