Tess L. GODWIN, Appellant,
v.
STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 96-2351.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
September 12, 1996.
Tess L. Godwin, Lowell, pro se.
No Appearance for Appellee.
2Per curiam
Defendant appeals the summary denial of her 3.800 motion to correct sentence. Defendant asserts in the 3.800 motion that the trial court entered a departure sentence without providing written reasons. This sentencing error must be raised on direct appeal, and it is not cognizable in a post-conviction motion. See Davis v. State, 661 So.2d 1193 (Fla.1995).
AFFIRMED.
