LEIBSON, Justice
dissenting in part.
Respectfully, I dissent from so much of the Majority Opinion as states that the holding does not “apply to pending motions for discretionary review.”
While it is legally consistent with the holding to state that it “does not apply to collateral attacks,” it is erroneous to state that it does not “apply to pending motions for discretionary review.”
Where there is a motion for discretionary review, the judgment is not final for any purpose until the motion has been ruled on. It follows that it should not be used in *634either truth-in-sentencing or persistent felony offender proceedings until it is final.
