Opinion

Affirmed. See McCoggle v. State, 49 Fla. L. Weekly D772a, at *4 (Fla. 4th DCA Apr. 10, 2024) (“Thus, where resentencing does not involve the consideration of any additional evidence, and where the trial court does not have any discretion in the new sentence it imposes, resentencing is a ministerial act.”); Jordan v. State, 143 So. 3d 335, 339 (Fla. 2014) (noting that “resentencing a defendant in his absence will be harmless where it involves only a ministerial act”); see also § 921.1402(2)(c), Fla. Stat. (mandating that “[a] juvenile offender sentenced to a term of more than 15 years under s. 775.082(1)(b)2., s. 775.082(3)(a)5.b., or s. 775.082(3)(b)2.b. is entitled to a review of his or her sentence after 15 years”).
