PER CURIAM.

Appellant Ellis Fletcher pled nolo conten-dere to a charge of grand theft and to a charge of possession of a controlled substance. Both offenses were committed pri- or to July 1, 1984.

On July 1, 1984, the sentencing guidelines, Rules 3.701 and 3.988, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, were amended. On October 10, 1984, Fletcher was sentenced in accordance with the guidelines as amended July 1, 1984.
