IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA FIFTH DISTRICT NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED CHARLESTON KAREEM LARRY, Appellant, v. Case No. 5D15-3247 STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed February 24, 2017 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County, Renee A. Roche, Judge. James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Robert Jackson Pearce III, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Robin A. Compton, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. Appellant raises two points on appeal, only one of which merits discussion. Immediately prior to sentencing, the trial court speculated about Appellant’s past behavior for which there was no record basis. Moreover, the subject matter of the past behavior was not relevant to the sentence. Under these circumstances, the sentence must be reversed and remanded for re-sentencing before a different judge. AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART AND REMANDED. ORFINGER and TORPY, JJ., and JACOBUS, B.W., Senior Judge, concur. 2
