Terrelle A. Tullis, Jasper, pro se.

No Appearance for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant appeals the trial court’s denial of his rule 3.800 amended motion to correct illegal sentence in Orange County Circuit Court Case No. 2008-CF-15374-A-O.

See § 944.279(1), Fla. Stat. (2018); State v. Spencer, 751 So. 2d 47 (Fla. 1999).
