MARLOWE v. THE STATE.
(618 SE2d 180)
Decided July 21, 2005.
John T. Strauss, for appellant.
W. Kendall Wynne, Jr., District Attorney, Jeffrey L. Foster, Assistant District Attorney, for appellee.

Opinion:
Adams, Judge.
By opinion dated November 17, 2003, Case No. S03G0351, the Supreme Court of Georgia reversed Division 2 of this Court's opinion in the above-captioned case, Marlowe v. State, 258 Ga. App. 152 (572 SE2d 685) (2002), in which we held that Marlowe's three counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony should be merged for purposes of sentencing. The Supreme Court held that:
in Marlowe, the Court of Appeals properly merged the two possession offenses stemming from attempted robbery and aggravated assault against a single victim. However, the possession charge predicated on the burglary count, a crime involving illegal entry into a building, would stand.
State v. Marlowe, 277 Ga. 383, 386-387 (3) (589 SE2d 69) (2003).
Accordingly, we vacate Division 2 of our opinion, and the judgment of the Supreme Court is made the judgment of this court for Division 2. This case is remanded for resentencing as above-directed by the Supreme Court of Georgia. The remainder of our opinion was not addressed by the Supreme Court and therefore still stands.
Judgment affirmed in part, reversed in part and case remanded for resentencing.
Ruffin, C. J., and Barnes, J., concur.
