Legal Opinion

Thomas v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided August 31, 1978No. JJ-181Published

1Per curiam

Defendant seeks review of the denial without evidentiary hearing of his motion to vacate, set aside or correct the sentence. Defendant’s assertion that consecutive sentences imposed for the burglary and grand larceny were illegal since the offenses arose out of a single transaction is, as determined by the trial court, without merit. Estevez v. State, 313 So.2d 692 (Fla.1975); Jenkins v. Wainwright, 322 So.2d 477 (Fla.1975); State v. Kirkland, 322 So.2d 480 (Fla.1975). Accordingly, the order denying defendant’s motion to vacate is AFFIRMED.
