701 So. 2d 887 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1997)

Opinion

Case No. 96-1724

Opinion filed June 25, 1997.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Leon County. L. Ralph Smith, Jr., Judge.

Robert Augustus Harper and Steven Brian Whittington of Robert Augustus Harper Law Firm, P.A., Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General; Amelia L. Beisner, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.


CORRECTED OPINION


In this direct criminal appeal, appellant raises a number of issues regarding both his convictions and his sentences. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude that only one merits discussion.

Appellant complains that he should not have been convicted of both the enhanced offense of attempted second-degree murder with a firearm and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. The state properly concedes error. State v. Brown, 633 So.2d 1059 (Fla. 1994); Cleveland v. State, 587 So.2d 1145 (Fla. 1991). Accordingly, we reverse appellant's conviction for possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, and remand with directions that the trial court vacate that conviction. In all other respects, we affirm.

AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART; and REMANDED, with directions.

ALLEN, WEBSTER and MICKLE, JJ., CONCUR.
