Manuel AGUILERA, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 88-54.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    March 8, 1988.
    Manuel Aguilera, in pro. per.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., for appellee.
    
      Before HENDRY, BASKIN and FERGUSON, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

Appellant contends, by this appeal from a ruling denying his Rule 3.850 motion for post conviction relief, that the court erred in sentencing him to three consecutive three-year mandatory minimum sentences for use of a firearm, where all three offenses arose out of a single criminal episode. We agree, and the State concedes, that the stacked mandatory minimum sentences violate the dictates of Palmer v. State, 438 So.2d 1 (Fla.1983), which has retroactive application, Cisnero v. State, 458 So.2d 377 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984).

The cause is remanded for a correction of sentence so that the minimum mandatory sentences run concurrently.
