Head Matter:
Charles SMITH, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 3D99-2773.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
April 26, 2000.
Charles Smith, in proper person.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Lara J. Edelstein, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
Before GERSTEN, GODERICH and SHEVIN, JJ.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Defendant seeks reversal of an order denying his motion for post-conviction relief contending that the Gort Act violated the single-subject rule. We reverse. Defendant was sentenced pursuant to the Gort Act; he committed the offenses on July 12, 1996. The state properly concedes that defendant is entitled to be re-sentenced as the supreme court has held that the Gort Act as originally enacted is unconstitutional. See State v. Thompson, 750 So.2d 643 (Fla.1999); Lee v. State, 739 So.2d 1175 (Fla. 3d DCA 1999). Accordingly, we vacate defendant's sentence and remand the cause for resentencing.
Reversed and remanded.
