WILLIAM S. LANG, Appellant, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee.

PER CURIAM

NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE REHEARING

MOTION AND, IF FILED, DETERMINED

Appeal pursuant to Fla. R. App. P.
9.141(b)(2) from the Circuit Court for
Pinellas County; Philip J. Federico,
Judge.
PER CURIAM.

William S. Lang appeals the postconviction court's order denying his motion for postconviction relief filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850, which the postconviction court treated as a motion filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). Because Mr. Lang received a mandatory sentence of life without the possibility of parole for a first-degree murder he committed when he was seventeen years old, we reverse the portion of the postconviction court's order summarily denying ground one of Mr. Lang's motion and remand the case for further proceedings consistent with Toye v. State, 133 So. 3d 540 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014), and Landrum v. State, 133 So. 3d 601 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014). We affirm the portion of the postconviction court's order summarily denying relief on ground two.
