The STATE of Florida, Appellant, v. Manuel GUZMAN, Appellee.
    No. 88-2244.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    April 18, 1989.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Cynthia A. Everett, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellant.
    Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Rosa C. Figarola, Asst. Public Defender, for appellee.
    Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HUBBART and COPE, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal by the state from a sentence which departs downward from the sentencing guidelines. Upon the defendant Manuel Guzman’s confession of error, we reverse the sentence under review and remand the cause to the trial court with directions to enter written reasons for the downward departure sentence. See, e.g., State v. Wayda, 533 So.2d 939 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988); State v. Adams, 528 So.2d 548 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988).

Reversed and remanded.
