Telfort v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided April 27, 1993No. 92-1349PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Per curiam

Elvis McDaniel and Gailey Telfort appeal from sentences entered following their convictions for various offenses arising from their attacks upon two individuals.

As to defendant McDaniel, we reverse that portion of his sentence which imposed minimum mandatory sentences for two counts of attempted manslaughter. See Murray v. State, 491 So.2d 1120 (Fla.1986) (there is no basis for the application of mandatory minimum sentences for manslaughter convictions). We affirm McDaniel’s sentence in all other respects.
