FREDDIE JAMES SIPLEN, Appellant, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee.

Case No. 5D07-1843

COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FIFTH DISTRICT

November 30, 2007, Opinion Filed

PRIOR HISTORY:    [*1]

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Brevard County, Lisa Davidson, Judge.

COUNSEL:   James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and David S. Morgan, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Carmen F. Corrente, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

JUDGES:   THOMPSON, TORPY and LAWSON, JJ., concur.

OPINION  

PER CURIAM.

Appellant challenges the modification of his probationary sentence, which occurred fourteen months after the probationary sentence was imposed. The court modified Appellant’s probation to include electronic monitoring, a mandatory condition of probation. Because the modification did not occur within sixty days after Appellant’s sentencing, the modification was erroneous. Fields v. State, 32 Fla. L. Weekly D2493 (Fla. 5th DCA Oct. 19, 2007); Kiriazes v. State, 798 So. 2d 789 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001); Accordingly, we reverse with the direction that the added condition of probation be stricken.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

THOMPSON, TORPY and LAWSON, JJ., concur.
