State of Florida, Petitioner v. Warren Stang, Respondent

Summary

The court concluded that it had improvidently granted discretionary jurisdiction and therefore discharged jurisdiction and dismissed the review proceeding without reaching the merits of the habeas corpus or sentencing-credit issues. Justice Lewis concurred, emphasizing that appellate review must remain confined to the record. Justice Perry, dissenting, would have retained jurisdiction, quashed the district court's decision, and required a properly noticed sentencing order.
