Florida District Court of Appeal, Second District (1999)

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
William Wilson appeals his conviction for manslaughter, arguing that the State failed to prove the victim’s head injury was a contributing cause of his death and arguing that the trial court erred in refusing to give three jury instructions proposed by Wilson. Upon review of the record, we conclude that the evidence was sufficient for the jury to find that Wilson’s actions were a contributing factor in the victim’s death. In addition, we find no reversible error in the trial court’s denial of Wilson’s requested jury instructions. Accordingly, we affirm.
Affirmed.

Gafford v. State, 783 So. 2d 1191 (Fla. 1st DCA 2001)…o. 2d -, 2001 WL 98595 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001); Weidner v. State, 767 So. 2d 604 (Fla. 4th DCA 2000). Courts have characterized the 60 day time limit for reducing or modifying a sentence under rule 3.800(c) as jurisdictional. See, e.g., Knapp v. State, 741 So. 2d 1150 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999); Hussey v. State, 739 So. 2d 123 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999); Bowling v. State, 688 So. 2d 947 (Fla. 5th DCA 1997). Accordingly, the 30 day limit under 3.170(0 is also jurisdictional; therefore, the trial court did not have the authority…

Linnon v. State, 988 So. 2d 70 (Fla. 2d DCA 2008)…trial court granted the State’s motion to correct sentence and resen-tenced Mr. Linnon after he had filed his notice of appeal. A trial court loses jurisdiction to resentence a defendant after the defendant files a notice of appeal. Knapp v. State, 741 So. 2d 1150, 1151 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999). Consequently, the trial court lost jurisdiction over Mr. Linnon when he filed his notice of appeal on March 7, 2007. Thus Mr. Linnon’s amended sentence must be vacated because the trial court lacked jurisdiction to impose i…

Price v. State, 838 So. 2d 587 (Fla. 3d DCA 2003)…sentence of 134 years to run consecutive to each other and count three. To begin, the trial court lacked jurisdiction to impose or alter Price’s sentence on November 14, 2001, where there were pending appeals from the sentences. See Knapp v. State, 741 So. 2d 1150, 1151 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999) (trial court lacks jurisdiction to re-sentence defendant while appeal is pending). Accordingly, the November 14th sentencing order is stricken in its entirety. Price also argues, and we agree, that the 134-year sentences for…
