595 So. 2d 581 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1992
Harold Edward Pelham seeks review of the judgment and sentence entered on a jury verdict finding him guilty of robbery with a deadly weapon, grand theft auto, kidnapping, sexual battery and sexual battery with a deadly weapon. Appellant’s convictions are affirmed.
However, appellant was sentenced as a habitual offender for the conviction of sexual battery with a deadly weapon which is a life felony. § 794.011(3), Fla.Stat. (1989). Because life felonies are not subject to habitual offender enhancement, Burdick v. State, 594 So.2d 267 (Fla.1992); Leaty v. State, 590 So.2d 512 (Fla. 2d DCA 1991); Lock v. State, 582 So.2d 819 (Fla. 2d DCA 1991), it was error to check the “habitual offender” box on the sentence form. Ac
Affirmed, but remanded.
