Charles Ray MARTIN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 92-3211.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    March 21, 1994.
    Nancy A Daniels, Public Defender, John R. Dixon, Asst. Public Defender, Tallahassee, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., James W. Rogers, Sr. Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

In this direct criminal appeal, the public defender has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Our independent review of the record satisfies us that no good-faith argument can be made that reversible error occurred regarding either of appellant’s convictions. The same is true as to appellant’s sentence for possession of a short-barrelled shotgun. However, appellant was sentenced for his conviction of aggravated assault with a firearm to three years in prison, to be followed by five years’ probation. This sentence is illegal, because it exceeds the maximum permitted for the third-degree felony of aggravated assault with a firearm. § 784.-021, Fla.Stat. (1991).

Appellant’s convictions, and his sentence for possession of a short-barrelled shotgun, are affirmed. Appellant’s sentence for aggravated assault with a firearm is vacated, and the ease is remanded for resentencing as to that offense.

AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART; and REMANDED, with directions.

BOOTH and WEBSTER, JJ., concur.

ALLEN, J., concurs in result.
