Luis Alberto Perez v. State of Florida

Summary

The Third District Court of Appeal of Florida affirmed the denial as moot of Luis Alberto Perez’s motion to correct an illegal sentence.

The court relied on Florida statutory law and decisions concerning moot sentencing challenges and the requirement of demonstrable prejudice.
