PETERS v. STATE

No. 4D11-607.

128 So.3d 832 (2013)

KEITH LAMONT PETERS, Appellant, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

November 20, 2013.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carey Haughwout , Public Defender, and Ellen Griffin , Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Pamela Jo Bondi , Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Matthew Ocksrider , Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


GROSS, J.

This appeal stems from an order of the trial court resentencing appellant Keith Peters to 99 years in prison for the numerous felonies he committed during a crime spree. Because of an anomaly that arose from the application of 1989 statutes after the decision in Graham v. Florida, 560 U.S. 48, 130 S.Ct. 2011, 176 L.Ed.2d 825 (2010), we reverse the sentence and remand for resentencing.
