Legal Opinion

Bush v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided February 1, 2012No. 3D11-3255Published

1Per curiam

The defendant’s motion under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800 was denied by the trial court. Because the defendant is challenging his conviction rather than his sentence, we treat his motion as a motion under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. See, e.g., Rivas v. State, 43 So.3d 154, 156 (Fla. 3d DCA 2010). The motion, pursuant to this Court’s precedent in Little v. State, 77 So.3d 722 (Fla. 3d DCA 2011), was legally insufficient on its face and thus properly denied.

Affirmed.
