William MORRISON, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

April 20, 2011.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James Marion Moorman , Public Defender, and Matthew D. Bernstein , Assistant Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.

Pamela Jo Bondi , Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Susan M. Shanahan , Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.


MORRIS, Judge.

William Morrison appeals the revocation of his probation and resulting sentence for two counts of lewd and lascivious conduct on a child under sixteen. We affirm the revocation of his probation without discussion. However, because the trial court imposed upward departure sentences without legal justification and improperly added legal status points, we reverse and remand for resentencing.
