DEBRITTON M. STEVENSON, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 5th DCA | 2016-09-30
No. 5D16-1927
EVANDER, COHEN and EDWARDS, JJ., concur.
207 So. 3d 266 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fifth District (2016)


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Debritton Stevenson appeals the trial court’s summary denial of his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a) Motion to Correct Illegal Sentence. In his motion, Stevenson argued that his minimum mandatory sentence for actual possession of a firearm was illegal because the information did not allege that he actually possessed a firearm. Because the trial court did not attach records to support its conclusion that the minimum mandatory sentence was legal, we are compelled to reverse. See DiSanto v. State, 190 So.3d 694 (Fla. 5th DCA 2016). On remand, if the trial court again enters an order summarily denying Stevenson’s motion, it must attach written portions of the record that conclusively refute his claim.

*267REVERSED and REMANDED for further proceedings.
