Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Larry Perkins, Chattahoochee, pro se.

Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Linda Harrison, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


PER CURIAM.

Larry Perkins appeals an order reducing the amount of credit awarded for time served. On December 12, 2000, the circuit court entered an order finding that Perkins was awarded too much credit for time served when he was resentenced on May 5, 2000. The court reduced the credit from 1,985 days to 1,386 days.

A sentence is not illegal if the court awards excess credit for time served. Syverson v. State, 659 So.2d 1344
