Opinion

No. 96-3302

Opinion filed July 1, 1998. JANUARY TERM 1998

An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County, Alex E. Ferrer, Judge. L.T. No. 95-14556.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Sheryl J. Lowenthal, Special Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Fredericka Sands, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and LEVY and SORONDO, JJ.


The record reflects that the trial court erred in its sentencing of the defendant in connection with counts 2 and 5 of the Information. The trial court classified count 5, Attempted Armed Robbery With a Firearm, as a first degree felony, when it is actually a second degree felony. Similarly, count 2, Aggravated Battery With a Firearm, was improperly classified as a first degree felony, instead of second degree felony.

Accordingly, the sentences imposed in connection with counts 2 and 5 are reversed and this case must be remanded to the trial court for the imposition of a sentence consistent herewith. In all other respects, the convictions and sentences imposed by the court are affirmed.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.
