Bobby Dale ADKINS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 94-798.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    Feb. 3, 1995.
    James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and Susan A. Fagan, Asst. Public Defender, Day-tona Beach, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Barbara Arlene Fink, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for appellee.
   DAUKSCH, Judge.

This is an appeal from a judgment and sentence in a capital sexual battery case. We find no reversible error regarding the judgment.

The sentence must be vacated. On January 14, 1994 this court ruled in a case from the seventh circuit that a sentence of life imprisonment for capital sexual battery cannot be followed by a life term of probation. See Wilson v. State, 630 So.2d 1186 (Fla. 5th DCA 1994). That precise circumstance is what we have here, in a sentence imposed just two months following the Wilson decision.

We vacate the sentence and remand for imposition of a legal sentence.

SENTENCE VACATED; REMANDED.

HARRIS, C.J., and PETERSON, J., concur.
