Opinion

No. 91-0308.

November 20, 1991. Certification Denied February 20, 1992.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Broward County; J. Leonard Fleet, Judge.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Douglas J. Glaid, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Barbara A. White, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellee.


The trial court erred by sentencing the defendant to less than the mandatory minimum sentence required for a sale of cocaine within 1,000 feet of a school. We reverse and remand for a resentencing to the mandatory minimum sentence. See State v. Vola, 591 So.2d 248 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991). See also State v. Baumgardner, 587 So.2d 1147 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991); State v. Scates, 585 So.2d 385 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991); State v. Baxter, 581 So.2d 937 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991).

GUNTHER and STONE, JJ., concur.

ANSTEAD, J., concurs specially with opinion.


I concur, but would also certify the same issue certified by this court in State v. Scates.
