Kemar Rochester, Petitioner v. State of Florida, Respondent — Pariente, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Pariente dissents, arguing that section 775.082(3)(a)4 of the Florida Statutes does not create a mandatory‑minimum sentence that bars a trial court from imposing a downward departure or from applying gain time, and therefore the Fourth District’s decision should be vacated and the case remanded for resentencing.
