Opinion:
SHIVERS, Judge.
Appellant, George Boatwright, appeals from a conviction on counts of burglary with intent to commit sexual battery, kidnapping with intent to commit sexual battery, and two counts of sexual battery on a person less than 12 years of age.
Boatwright received a sentence of 25 years imprisonment on the charge of burglary of a dwelling with intent to commit assault. Boatwright's sentence provided that this count would run consecutively with Counts 2 and 4, which both involved sexual battery. In addition, Boatwright's sentence required that his conviction of burglary of a dwelling would run concurrently with Count 3, his sexual battery-count. Boatwright was also sentenced to 25 years imprisonment for his conviction of kidnapping. This sentence was to run consecutively with Boatwright's convictions for Counts I and III, burglary of a dwelling and sexual battery. It was to run concurrently with his conviction on Count 4 of sexual battery. As to Count 3 (sexual battery), Boatwright received a sentence of life without the possibility of parole for 25 years. This sentence was to run consecutively with Counts II and IV, which involved kidnapping and sexual battery. Count 3 was also required to run concurrently with Boatwright's conviction for burglary of a dwelling. Finally, Boatwright received a life sentence without the possibility of parole for his conviction on Count 4, his second sexual battery count. Again, this life term was without the possibility of parole for 25 years. This sentence was to run consecutively with Boatwright's conviction of burglary of a dwelling as well as with his sexual battery conviction under Count 3. It was to run concurrently with Boatwright's conviction for kidnapping.
Boatwright alleges that the trial court erred in stacking minimum mandatory consecutive sentences because his criminal acts occurred in one continuous course of conduct. We agree, and reverse. See Pratt v. State, 472 So.2d 799 (Fla. 3d DCA 1985).
We also find that the trial court erred in scoring both sexual battery counts since they were capital felonies to which the sentencing guidelines do not apply. See section 921.001(4)(a), Florida Statutes (1985). On remand, therefore, the trial court should recalculate the offenses on Boatwright's scoresheet, bearing in mind that capital felonies are not to be scored. We have considered the other issues which Boatwright raises, and find them to be without merit.
REVERSED and REMANDED.
THOMPSON and NIMMONS, JJ., concur.
