PER CURIAM.

    We reverse the county court's order finding the mandatory $5,000

796.07(6), Florida Statutes (2014), to be unconstitutionally excessive.
See State v. Jones, 180 So. 3d 1085 (Fla. 4th DCA 2015). We remand for
further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

   Reversed and remanded.
