Description
Appellant, Mulazim M. Yasin, was sentenced to a minimum mandatory term of 25 years in prison, followed by 20 years probation, for the first degree felony of attempted second degree murder with a firearm. He filed a rule 3.800(a) motion, arguing that his sentence exceeds the 30 year statutory maximum for a first degree felony. However, the trial court held that the sentence was authorized under section 775.087(2)(a)3, Florida Statutes, because the jury found that appellant had discharged a firearm, causing great bodily harm.
