967 So.2d 999 (2007)

Willie BOONE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

October 26, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Rose M. Levering, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Allison Leigh Morris, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.


LAWSON, J.

Willie James Boone appeals from an order revoking his probation and sentencing him to thirty years in prison. He challenges both the basis for the revocation and the sentence imposed. We find no merit in Boone's challenge to the finding that he violated his probation by committing new crimes. However, we agree with Boone that the trial judge imposed a sentence longer than allowed by law. Therefore, we reverse the sentence and remand for resentencing.
