Text: We previously discussed Latif's claim of scoresheet error in our Maddox opinion: [I]n assessing whether a scoresheet error that appears on the face of the record constitutes fundamental error, the appellate court should consider the qualitative effect of the error on the sentencing process and whether the error was likely to cause a quantitative effect on the defendant's sentence. If this cannot be determined readily on appeal, the scoresheet errors are more appropriately addressed in the trial court. On appeal to this Court, the parties have not adequately briefed the merits of the actual alleged errors in ... Latiif. Maddox v. State, 760 So.2d 89, 103 (Fla. 2000). Accordingly, we determined that the merits of the alleged scoresheet error was not adequately briefed and should be remanded. See id.
