Lead Opinion

DAUKSCH, Judge.

This is an appeal from a sentence which departs from that recommended by the sentencing guidelines. No written reasons for the departure were given. That is error. State v, Oden, 478 So.2d 51 (Fla.1985); Matthews v. State, 486 So.2d 47 (Fla. 5th DCA 1986).

SENTENCE VACATED; REMANDED.
