ON MOTION FOR CERTIFICATION

PER CURIAM.

Appellant‘s motion for certification is granted, and we hereby certify to the Florida Supreme Court the following questions:

Does section 775.084, Florida Statutes (1989), authorize habitual felon sentencing for a criminal defendant who has previously been convicted of a violent offense enumerated in the statute, but who is currently being sentenced for a non-violent offense?

2. If section 775.084, Florida Statutes (1989), authorizes habitual felon sentencing for a criminal defendant who is currently being sentenced for a non-violent offense, does the statute violate the constitutional principles of equal protection, due process, double jeopardy, or ex post facto?

JOANOS, C.J., and WOLF and KAHN, JJ., concur.
