3.850 Appeal from the Circuit
Court for Marion County,
Jonathan D. Ohlman, Judge.

Patrick Michael Megaro, of Appeals Law
Group, P.A., Orlando, for Appellant.

No Appearance for Appellee.


PER CURIAM.

       Emmanuel Breadon appeals the summary denial of his Florida Rule of Criminal

Procedure 3.850 motion for post-conviction relief. We affirm, except as to the claim that

trial counsel was ineffective by failing to explore and/or raise an insanity defense. The

trial court correctly found that Breadon had failed to allege that he was, in fact, insane at

the time of the offense. See Luckey v. State, 

, 354 (Fla. 5th DCA 2008).
However, rather than summarily denying the claim because of its facial insufficiency, the

trial court should have afforded Breadon the opportunity to amend.

(Fla. 2007).

      AFFIRMED, in part; REVERSED, in part; and REMANDED.
