Opinion

No. 93-1020.

February 9, 1994.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for St. Lucie County; Dwight L. Geiger, Judge.

Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Robert Friedman, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Melynda Melear, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm appellant's convictions but reverse those portions of appellant's sentencing orders adjudicating him to be an habitual offender. See Ashley v. State, 614 So.2d 486 (Fla. 1993) (in addition to receiving prior written notice of the state's intent to habitualize, defendant must be made personally aware of both the possibility and reasonable consequences of habitualization).

DELL, C.J., and ANSTEAD and KLEIN, JJ., concur.
