Head Matter:
The STATE of Florida, Appellant, v. Tracy RICHARDSON, Appellee.
No. 89-2889.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
May 29, 1990.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Monique T. Befeler, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellant.
Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Howard K. Blumberg, Asst. Public Defender, for appellee.
Before NESBITT, LEVY and GODERICH, JJ.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Because the trial court made no written findings supporting the downward departure sentence under review, the sentence must be reversed and the ease remanded for the defendant to either be re-sentenced within the guidelines, Pope v. State, 561 So.2d 554 (Fla.1990), or to be allowed to withdraw his plea and proceed to trial.
