Robin Eustache, Petitioner v. State of Florida, Respondent.

Summary

The Florida Supreme Court held that when a youthful offender’s probation is revoked for a substantive violation, the trial court may either reimpose a youthful‑offender sentence without a mandatory minimum or impose an adult CPC sentence that includes any statutory minimum mandatory term. Accordingly, the Court quashed the lower court’s decision and remanded for resentencing. Justice Pariente, in a partial concurrence/dissent, agreed with the remand but disagreed with the majority’s view that an adult sentence must contain the mandatory minimum.
