      PER CURIAM.
            ON REMAND FROM THE FLORIDA SUPREME COURT

      This case returns to us from the Florida Supreme Court, which quashed that

portion of our earlier decision reversing Smith’s conviction and sentence for armed

burglary.1 See State v. Smith, 43 Fla. L. Weekly S177 (Fla. April 12, 2018). In

accordance with the Florida Supreme Court’s opinion and pursuant to its mandate,

we reinstate and affirm Earvin Smith’s conviction and sentence for armed

burglary.

1Smith v. State, 211 So. 3d 176 (Fla. 3d DCA 2016). We stayed the issuance of
our mandate pending review by the Florida Supreme Court.
