WILLIE EUGENE FEIMSTER, APPELLANT,
v.
THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 3d DCA | 1997-07-23
No. 97-187
Before COPE, GREEN and SORONDO, JJ.
706 So. 2d 1361 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1997) Negative Treatment
Cited by 10 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Upon the State’s proper confession of error, we reverse the appellant’s twenty-seven year sentence for attempted second degree murder as being illegal in that it exceeds the statutory maximum sentence for this offense. Attempted second degree murder is a second degree felony for which the maximum sentence is fifteen years. See § 777.04(4)(c), § 782.04(2), Fla. Stat. (1991); § 775.082(3)(c), Fla. Stat. (1991). We therefore remand this cause for resentencing.

Reversed and remanded.
