    D.P., a Child, Petitioner, v. STATE of Florida, Respondent.
    No. 5D09-839.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    April 24, 2009.
    Robert Wesley, Public Defender, and Rosemarie Farrell, Assistant Public Defender, Orlando, for Petitioner.
    No Appearance for Respondent.
   PER CURIAM.

We granted by unpublished order the petition for writ of habeas corpus filed by D.P., a juvenile, challenging his continued secure detention, based upon an allegedly improperly scored Risk Assessment Instrument (RAI). We now write to explain the order.

D.P. is sixteen years of age and was charged with the offense of carrying a concealed firearm. Under section 3 of the RAI, he was given ten points for a third-degree felony involving the use and possession of a firearm. He was also scored an additional three points under that same section for the aggravating circumstance of illegal possession of a firearm. This resulted in a score exceeding the twelve points necessary for secure detention. Because the firearm possession was already factored into the initial scoring of ten points, it could not be used again without impermissibly double scoring the same conduct already accounted for in the RAI. P.A.J. v. Gnat, 684 So.2d 310 (Fla. 1st DCA 1996); D.G. v. Miles, 872 So.2d 343 (Fla. 2d DCA 2004). Consequently, D.P. was ineligible for secure detention because he scored less than twelve points.

PETITION FOR HABEAS CORPUS GRANTED.
