Head Matter:
ALLSTATE INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellant, v. Robert VanHOUTEN and Brenda VanHouten, Appellees.
No. 97-2767.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
May 13, 1998.
Rehearing Denied June 8, 1998.
Richard A Sherman and Rosemary B. Wilder of Law Offices of Richard A. Sherman, P.A, Fort Lauderdale, and F. Neal Colvin of Kubicki Draper, P.A, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Philip M. Burlington of Caruso, Burlington, Bohn & Compiani, P.A, West Palm Beach, and Law Offices of Scott Young, P.A., Deerfield Beach, for appellees.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Appellant complains that the trial court erred in sua sponte requiring the jury to reconsider the appellees' damages on the ground that the verdict was inconsistent. Based on Allstate Insurance Co. v. Manasse, 707 So.2d 1110 (Fla.1998), the appellees concede error. We therefore reverse and remand for entry of a judgment in accordance with the initial verdict in this case.
WARNER, POLEN and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
