CLAUDIA VERGARA-CASTANO,

v. Case No. 5D15-691
STATE OF FLORIDA,
Appellee.
________________________________/
Opinion filed April 1, 2016
3.850 Appeal from the
Circuit Court for Orange
County,
Timothy R. Shea, Judge.
H. Manuel Hernandez, of H. Manuel
Hernandez, P.A., Longwood, for Appellant.
Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General,
Tallahassee, and Kristen L. Davenport,
Assistant Attorney General, Daytona
Beach, for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
Claudia Vergara-Castano is before this court again appealing the lower court's
denial of her motion to withdraw her plea. For the reasons stated in Castano v. State,
106 So. 3d 28, 29 (Fla. 5th DCA 2013), we reverse and remand with instructions for the
lower court to grant Appellant's motion to withdraw her plea and set aside the judgment
and sentence originally entered. On remand, Appellant may either proceed to trial or
enter a plea. Appellant and her counsel are reminded that this court previously
determined that a conviction of or plea to the offense charged clearly subjects Appellant
to the risk of mandatory
deportation. 106 So. 3d at 29.
REVERSED AND REMANDED WITH INSTRUCTIONS.
ORFINGER, TORPY and EDWARDS, JJ., concur.
