St. Cyr v. State

On Motion to Supplement the Record on Appeal

WARNER, J.

In this appeal of an order denying a motion to correct an illegal sentence pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a), the state has moved to supplement the appellate record with the sentencing documents from appellant’s case file, as it claims a review of the sentencing documents is required for a complete understanding of appellant’s sentence and to respond to the issue raised in appellant’s brief. We deny the motion.

One would think that an appellate court should have available to it the actual sentencing documents any time…
