561 So. 2d 1280 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1990)

Opinion

No. 88-03275.

May 23, 1990.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Polk County, David Langford, J.

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Jennifer Y. Fogle, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Brenda S. Taylor, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


The appellant, fifteen years old at the time of the crimes charged in this case, was sentenced as an adult. There was, however, no written decision to impose adult sanctions setting forth findings of fact and reasons as is required by section 39.111(7)(d), Florida Statutes (1987).

Therefore, we reverse the sentences and remand for compliance with the statute.

RYDER, A.C.J., and DANAHY and FRANK, JJ., concur.
