Head Matter:
Michael Clay ALEXANDER, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 89-1940.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
Dec. 1, 1989.
Michael Clay Alexander pro se.
No appearance for the State.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Appellant has filed an untimely appeal from the trial court's denial of his Motion for Sentence Modification. In this motion, appellant seeks a reduction of a legal sentence. It is well settled that a trial judge's discretionary ruling on whether to modify or reduce a legal sentence is not appeal-able. Davenport v. State, 414 So.2d 640 (Fla. 1st DCA 1982); Marsh v. State, 497 So.2d 954 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986); Hallman v. State, 371 So.2d 482, 484 (Fla.1979), affirming 343 So.2d 912 (Fla. 2d DCA 1977); Parker v. State, 214 So.2d 632 (Fla. 2d DCA 1968); Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.800(b); § 924.06, Fla.Stat. (1987). Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED.
SHIVERS, C.J., and ERVIN and NIMMONS, JJ., concur.
