You need to talk to a Florida criminal lawyer about this.  One place to look for an attorney in your area is our website, http://attorneypages.com

Many states use a "point system" of some sort in the sentencing process or bail decisions.  But they aren't by any means all the same.  Without being familiar with the system in both states, and without all of the facts of your case, it's impossible to tell you if there was an "enhancement" here, and if that was proper, or if it's just the way the same things "translate" from one state to the other.


IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Answer(s) provided above are for general information only. The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
