 1                            MEMORANDUM OPINION

 2 VIGIL, Judge.

 3        Defendant has appealed from the revocation of his probation. We previously

 4 issued a notice of proposed summary disposition, proposing to affirm as to the

 5 revocation, but to reverse and remand the as to the sentence in light of an apparent

 6 Linam sequencing problem. Both Defendant and the State have filed responsive

 7 memoranda. With respect to the revocation, Defendant continues to oppose to our

 8 proposed analysis, but presents nothing new in the way of argument or authority. We

 9 therefore adhere to our initial assessment of this matter. With respect to the sentence,

10 both Defendant and the State have expressed agreement with our proposal to reverse

11 and remand for correction.

12        Accordingly, for the reasons previously stated, we affirm the revocation of

13 Defendant’s probation, but reverse the sentence, and remand for further proceedings

14 consistent herewith.

15        IT IS SO ORDERED.

16                                                ______________________________
