ROBERT KLECKLEY, PETITIONER,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, RESPONDENT

Fla. 4th DCA | 2002-03-20
No. 4D01-4586
POLEN, C.J., GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
810 So. 2d 1081 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fourth District (2002) Positive Treatment

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

This case involves Robert Kleckley’s petition for writ of habeas corpus alleging ineffective assistance of appellate counsel for failing to order or have transcribed the sentencing transcripts. Kleckley alleges that when the trial court pronounced his sentence, it failed to orally pronounce his sentence under 10-20 Life, and as a habitual offender. We find Kleckley’s petition legally sufficient, and grant relief. Compare Thompson v. State, 759 So. 2d 650 (Fla.2000).

On remand, the trial court may appoint appellate counsel to assist Kleckley with preparing the record on appeal and his initial brief. The appeal is to address sentencing only.

POLEN, C.J., GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.

State, 697 So. 2d 1289 (Fla. 5th DCA 1997). We therefore grant a belated appeal restricted to this single issue where both the defense and the State may fully brief the issue. STEVENSON, J., concurs.
