595 So. 2d 584

Everett v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1992-03-25

Relies on 594 So. 2d 273 - Williams v. State

Decided 1992-03-25

PER CURIAM.

¶1The trial judge departed upward from the recommended guidelines sentence in this case based on multiple violations of probation/community control. Subsequently, the Florida Supreme Court has held that multiple violations of probation are not valid reasons to depart from the guidelines but that “where there are multiple violations of probation, the sentence may be successively bumped to one higher cell for each violation.” Williams v. State, 594 So.2d 273 (Fla.1992). Therefore, we reverse the sentences herein and remand for resentencing consistent with Williams. We reject appellant’s other point on appeal.

¶2Affirmed in part, reversed in part.

DANAHY, A.C.J., and PARKER and PATTERSON, JJ., concur.
