FRANK GUZMAN, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 2d DCA | 2011-07-15
No. 2D10-1635
LaROSE and CRENSHAW, JJ., Concur.
66 So. 3d 1023 Florida District Court of Appeal, Second District (2011)


Opinion of the Court
SILBERMAN, Chief Judge.

SILBERMAN, Chief Judge.

Frank Guzman seeks review of his judgment and sentences for lewd or lascivious molestation and lewd or lascivious exhibition. We reject Guzman’s argument that the trial court erred in sustaining the State’s objection to the defense peremptory challenge to a female juror. The court’s determination that the defense explanation for the peremptory challenge was a pretext was not clearly erroneous. See Jeffries v. State, 797 So.2d 573, 580 (Fla.2001); Melbourne v. State, 679 So.2d *1024759, 764-65 (Fla.1996). We accept the State’s concession that the judgment must be corrected to set forth the statute number for the offense of conviction on count two. See Ellis v. State, 855 So.2d 101, 103 (Fla. 2d DCA 2003). We therefore affirm Guzman’s convictions and sentences but remand for correction of his written judgment. Guzman need not be present for this correction. See id.

Convictions and sentences affirmed; remanded for correction of the written judgment.
