163 So. 2d 797

Hoffman v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1964-05-08

Relies on 156 So. 2d 566 - Savage v. State · 158 So. 2d 766 - Dias v. State · Turner v. State

Decided 1964-05-08

PER CURIAM.

¶1Earl Frank Hoffman appeals an order denying his motion to vacate judgment and sentence filed pursuant to Criminal Procedure Rule No. 1, F.S.A. ch. 924 Appendix. Appellant’s motion failed to allege that he was indigent and unable to employ counsel at the time he entered his plea. The motion therefore was legally insufficient. See Dias v. State, Fla.App.1963, 158 So.2d 766; Savage v. State, Fla.App.1963, 156 So.2d 566; Auflick v. State, Fla.App.1963, 158 So.2d 767; Duke v. State, Fla.App.1964, 162 So.2d 549.

¶2The order appealed is therefore affirmed without prejudice to appellant’s right to refile his motion in accordance with the rule announced in Turner v. State, Fla.App.1964, 161 So.2d 11.

¶3Affirmed.

SMITH, C. J., and SHANNON and WHITE, JJ., concur.
