Head Matter:
Anthony SESSIONS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 90-2186.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
Feb. 18, 1992.
Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Lydia A. Fernandez, Sp. Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen. and Jorge Espinosa, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appel-lee.
Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HUBBART and GERSTEN, JJ.

Opinion:
SCHWARTZ, Chief Judge.
After a jury trial, the appellant was convicted of second degree murder with a firearm and possession of a firearm in the commission of the second degree murder. While the only substantive point is frivolous, two other issues require further treatment.
1. On the authority of Lamont v. State, 597 So.2d 823 (Fla. 3d DCA 1992), the life sentence without parole imposed upon Sessions for the life felony of second degree murder with a firearm is affirmed under section 775.084(4)(e), Florida Statutes (1989) of the habitual offender act. The fifteen year minimum mandatory provision is, however, vacated. See Lamont, 597 So.2d at 829. We make the same certifications of conflict as those contained in the Lamont opinion.
2. The separate judgment and sentence for possession of the firearm are set aside on the authority of Cleveland v. State, 587 So.2d 1145 (Fla.1991). Accord Davis v. State, 590 So.2d 496 (Fla. 3d DCA 1991).
Affirmed in part; reversed in part.
GERSTEN, J., concurs.
