Opinion

Case No. 1D00-4819

Opinion filed January 18, 2001.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Okaloosa County. Thomas T. Remington, Judge.

Appellant, pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and James W. Rogers, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


The appellant challenges an order denying his motion to correct his illegal sentence. The appellant alleged that he is entitled to resentencing under Heggs v. State, 759 So.2d 620 (Fla. 2000). His offense date of November 9, 1995, falls within the window period for claims underHeggs. See Trapp v. State, 760 So.2d 924 (Fla. 2000). The appellant alleged also that the sentence he received was greater than that available under the 1994 guidelines. The trial court denied the appellant's motion, but failed to attach documents to the record to support its reasoning. Because the appellant has stated a facially sufficient claim for relief, see Bull v. State, 782 So.2d 921 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001), we REVERSE AND REMAND to the trial court to attach portions of the record which conclusively refute the appellant's claim or to reconsider the merits of the claim.

ERVIN, BARFIELD, and LEWIS, JJ., CONCUR.
