Willie James JOHNSON, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 4D98-4433.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    Feb. 21, 2001.
    Charles Kaplan of the Law Offices of Kaplan & Singhal, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Heidi L. Bettendorf, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   On Rehearing

FARMER, J.

After our original opinion in this case was released, the Florida Supreme Court decided Grant v. State, 770 So.2d 655 (Fla.2000). In accord with Grant, we recede from our earlier opinion and affirm Appellant’s original sentence imposed by the trial court.

GROSS and TAYLOR, JJ., concur. 
      
      . We treat the State’s motion to stay mandate as effectually requesting a rehearing and grant the motion.
