State of Florida, Petitioner v. Warren Stang, Respondent — Perry, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Perry would have retained jurisdiction and quashed the district court's decision releasing Stang, reasoning that his habeas challenge was procedurally barred and that the corrected sentencing order accurately reflected the oral pronouncement of a twenty-seven-year sentence with credit for 1,915 days. The dissent also would have remanded for entry of a properly noticed order consistent with that pronouncement. Justice Lewis, concurring, agreed that jurisdiction should be discharged but rejected the dissent's reliance on material outside the appellate record.
