Holding

When a postconviction court reattaches records on remand, those records must conclusively refute a defendant's claim for relief; if they do not, an evidentiary hearing is required.

Opinion of the Court

September 22, 2023 PER CURIAM.

Livingston Jarrod Winters appeals the postconviction court’s amended order summarily denying grounds two, three, and four of his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 motion for postconviction relief after remand.1 Concluding that the record attachments to the amended order have not conclusively refuted Winters’s claim for relief on ground two, we reverse that aspect of the amended order and remand for an evidentiary hearing.2 We affirm the postconviction court’s denial of grounds three and four without further discussion.

AFFIRMED, in part, REVERSED, in part, and REMANDED for further proceedings. EDWARDS, C.J., MAKAR and LAMBERT, JJ., concur.

_____________________________ Not final until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or 9.331.
