Head Matter:
Joseph FLEURIT, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 87-158.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
Aug. 8, 1988.
Michael E. Allen, Public Defender, Terry P. Lewis, Asst. Public Defender, Tallahassee, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Bradford C. Thomas, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Appellant was convicted upon trial by jury of the offense of trafficking in cocaine, possession of cocaine, and resisting an officer without violence.
Under the holding of Carawan v. State, 515 So.2d 161 (Fla.1987), which was decided during the pendency of this appeal, conviction of both trafficking in cocaine and possession of cocaine was improper. We therefore reverse the judgment and sentence with respect to the Count One offense of possession of cocaine and remand to the trial court with instructions that an order be entered discharging the appellant from the Count One charge.
We have examined the remaining issues raised by the appellant and find no reversible error. The various prosecutorial comments and evidentiary items objected to by appellant were either properly received, not properly objected to, or their admission constituted harmless error.
AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part.
THOMPSON and NIMMONS, JJ., concur.
BARFIELD, J., dissents with written opinion.
