Appeal from the Circuit Court for Volusia County; Robert P. Miller, Judge.

Michael H. Lambert, P.A., Daytona Beach, for appellant.

PER CURIAM.

The appellant, John Dixon Gentry, was convicted and sentenced for two counts of burglary and three counts of grand theft. We affirm the convictions but reverse the departure sentences because no written reasons for departure were given by the trial court. See State v. Jackson, 478 So.2d 1054 (Fla. 1985).

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED for resentencing.
