v.
STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 98-01488.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
July 1, 1998.
2Per curiam
Jorge Morales challenges the trial court's denial of his motion to correct illegal sentence filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). He accurately alleges that his sentence of thirty years' prison followed by five years' probation for a first-degree felony exceeds the thirty-year maximum allowable sentence. The trial court denied the motion on the basis that the sentence was the result of a negotiated plea. We reverse.
