Opinion

No. 95-0058.

November 1, 1995.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Broward County; Stanton S. Kaplan, Judge.

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Ellen Morris, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Aubin Wade Robinson, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


We affirm appellant's convictions. As to his sentence, the state properly concedes that the trial court erred in imposing a three-year mandatory minimum in all three counts. Accordingly, we reverse that part of appellant's sentence and remand with direction to strike the mandatory minimum in all three counts.

GLICKSTEIN, WARNER and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
