ROBERTS v. STATE

No. 92-2852.

616 So.2d 1165 (1993)

Harvey Bruce ROBERTS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, et al., Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

April 16, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Harvey Bruce Roberts, East Palatka, pro se.

Susan A. Maher, Deputy Gen. Counsel, Tallahassee, for appellees, Harry K. Singletary, Jr., and Richard Dugger.

No appearance for appellee, State.


HARRIS, Judge.

Harvey Bruce Roberts (Roberts) appeals the denial of his writ of Habeas Corpus. He claims that he was denied "vested" gain-time allowance provided by the 1978 gain-time statute after such statute was amended in 1983 reducing the amount of awardable gain-time. Even the 1983 amendment, however, provides more gain-time than was available to him under the statute in force at the time Roberts committed his offenses sometime prior to 1971.
