DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA FOURTH DISTRICT January Term 2008 JOSE LUIS BARAJAS, Appellant, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. No. 4D06-3947 February 13, 2008 PER CURIAM. Jose Luis Barajas appeals the denial of his rule 3.850 motion. At a hearing on some of his claims, the state agreed with Barajas that his conviction for count V should be vacated based on a double jeopardy violation. The trial court accepted the concession and recognized that this would require a new sentencing hearing with a corrected scoresheet. The written order vacated the conviction and sentence on count V, but Barajas was not re-sentenced on the remaining charges. On appeal, the state agrees that re-sentencing is required. See State v. Anderson, 905 So. 2d 111 (Fla. 2005) (holding that the proper test for determining whether re-sentencing is required as a result of a scoresheet error raised in a 3.850 motion is whether the record conclusively shows the same sentence would have been imposed with a correct scoresheet); Leyva v. State, 929 So. 2d 1210 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006). Accordingly, we reverse the circuit court s order and remand for the court to re-sentence Barajas on the remaining charges with a corrected scoresheet. We affirm the denial of Barajas remaining claims.
