Russell Lee YATES, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 5D99-3468.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    April 20, 2000.
    Sharon Lee Stedman, of Sharon Lee Stedman, P.A., Orlando, for Appellant..
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Anthony J. Golden, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.
   GRIFFIN, J,

We find appellant’s claims of ineffective assistance of trial counsel to be without merit; however, in light of the supreme court’s decision in State v. Thompson, 750 So.2d 643 (Fla.1999), defendant must be resentenced.

SENTENCE VACATED and REMANDED.

DAUKSCH and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
