Head Matter:
John M. GLAVE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 98-1314.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
Nov. 10, 1999.
Opinion on Reconsideration Dec. 22,1999.
Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Steven H. Malone, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Barbara A. Zappi, Assistant Attorney General, Fort Lauder-dale, for appellee.

Opinion:
WARNER, C.J.
We affirm appellant s conviction and find that the court did not err in overruling his objections to the state's comments in closing argument. In the context of the entire argument, we do not construe the prosecutor's statements as an impermissible comment on the right to remain silent or as a disparaging remark on appellant's right to a jury trial.
However, we reverse appellant's sentence which was imposed under both the Prisoner Releasee Reoffender Act and the Habitual Felony Offender statute, as the two sentences violate principles of double jeopardy. See Adams v. State, — So.2d -, 1999 WL 966743 (Fla. 4th DCA Oct.20, 1999). On remand the trial court should sentence appellant pursuant to one or the other statute, but not both.
Conviction affirmed; sentence reversed.
FARMER and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
