FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND

BRYAN RICHARD CHERRY,

Appellant,

STATE OF FLORIDA,

Appellee.

________________________________/

Opinion filed April 18, 2019

3.800 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Sumter County, William H. Hallman, III, Judge.

Bryan Richard Cherry, Bristol, pro se.

No Appearance for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant seeks review of an order dismissing his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800 motion to correct illegal sentence. Because the trial court correctly determined Appellant’s claims are not cognizable under rule 3.800, we affirm. However, our affirmance is without prejudice to Appellant timely filing a properly sworn motion pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850, if he can do so in good faith.

AFFIRMED.

COHEN, EISNAUGLE, and SASSO, JJ., concur.
