No. 5D99-3468.

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.

Opinion:
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.
