Thanonglit v. State
Citations: 914 So. 2d 1003; 2005 Fla. App. LEXIS 16864; 2005 WL 2757374Docket: No. 2D05-1938
Court: District Court of Appeal of Florida; October 26, 2005; Florida; State Appellate Court
Chanpheng Thanonglit's appeal against the summary denial of his motion for postconviction relief under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 has been affirmed. The appellate court upheld the postconviction court’s decision but identified a scrivener’s error in Thanonglit’s written judgment. Specifically, the judgment inaccurately states that he was convicted of attempted first-degree murder without specifying that it was with a firearm, as confirmed by the jury's verdict and the trial transcript. The correct statutory references should include section 775.087 and the phrase "with a firearm." The court has remanded the case for the necessary corrections to the written judgment. Justices Whatley, Casanueva, and Stringer concurred with the decision.
