Garcia v. State

The recommended guidelines sentence in this case (after the “bump-up” for violation of probation) was community control or twelve to thirty months incarceration. The *24sentence actually imposed on the two counts herein was two years incarceration followed by two years community control. This was error. Imposition of both community control and incarceration is a departure sentence, requiring written reasons for departure. See State v. VanKooten, 522 So.2d 830 (Fla.1988).

Accordingly, we vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing. Otherwise, affirmed.
