District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

October 16, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Rosa C. Figarola, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Michael J. Neimand, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and NESBITT and COPE, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

Defendant's sentence must be reversed because the sentence was enhanced to eleven and one-half years incarceration without any written statement accompanying it explaining the upward departure from the permitted range of between four and one-half to seven years incarceration. Consequently, the defendant's sentence is reversed and the cause remanded for proper resentencing within the guidelines. Pope v. State, 561 So.2d 554
