William LANGFORD, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 5D99-3098.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    Dec. 15, 2000.
    James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and Thomas J. Lukashow, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Denise O. Simpson, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

In this Anders appeal, the state has acknowledged that Langford received a sentence for aggravated battery, which exceeded both the statutory maximum and the recommended guidelines range. It is therefore illegal. See, e.g., Eckard v. State, 758 So.2d 742 (Fla. 5th DCA 2000). Accordingly, we reverse Langford’s sentence of twelve years incarceration followed by ten years probation and remand for resentencing.

Sentence VACATED; REMANDED.

COBB, W. SHARP, and PETERSON, JJ., concur.
