725 SO2D 466 - Tomlin v. State

ERVIN, J.

¶1In this appeal filed pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), we affirm Ivan Tomlin’s conviction and sentence.

¶2The record does, however, contain a score-sheet error. Tomlin’s prior conviction for escape from a juvenile facility was designated a violation of section 944.04, Florida Statutes, at offense level 8, earning 19 points. Instead it is a violation of section 944.401, Florida Statutes,1 at offense level 3, earning only 1.6 points. § 921.0012, Fla.Stat. (Supp.1998). Changing this particular score from 19 to 1.6 points drops Tomlin’s final score from 48.6 to 31.2 points. Because this change affects the length of his guidelines sentence, he may challenge the incorrect calculation under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). Romano v. State, 718 So.2d 283 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998).
