Harris v. State, 810 So. 2d 1093

PER CURIAM.

Pursuant to a negotiated plea, Rudolph Harris was convicted of the lesser-included offense of possession of cocaine and received a four year sentence. In his Rule 3.850¹ motion, he alleges the existence of several errors in his scoresheet. The trial court in its order acknowledges the existence of scoresheet errors but declined to grant any relief because he entered a plea in exchange for a specific term of years.

The trial court ruled correctly. Scoresheet errors are harmless when the sentence is the result of a negotiated plea agreement. See, e.g., Hill v. State, 730 So.2d 322 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999). The transcript reflects that Harris entered his plea in exchange for a four year sentence, not a guidelines sentence. Moreover, as the court points out in its order, he does not seek to withdraw his plea.

AFFIRMED.

GRIFFIN, PLEUS and ORFINGER, R.B., JJ., concur.
