Devon Chaun SEAYS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Benjamin Eisenberg, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant. No appearance required for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Benjamin Eisenberg, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

No appearance required for appellee.

Per Curiam.

The Florida Supreme Court quashed this Court's decision in Seays v. State , 253 So. 3d 21 (Fla. 4th DCA 2018), and remanded for reconsideration and application of Pedroza v. State , 291 So. 3d 541 (Fla. 2020). We affirm. Under Pedroza , Appellant's concurrent 25-year sentences for non-homicide offenses are not the functional equivalent of a life sentence, and Graham v. Florida , 560 U.S. 48, 130 S.Ct. 2011, 176 L.Ed.2d 825 (2010), is not implicated.

Affirmed.

Levine, C.J., May, and Klingensmith, JJ., concur.
