Opinion

No. 92-0888.

November 3, 1993.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Palm Beach County; Richard I. Wennet, Judge.

Henry J. Meyer, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Melynda L. Melear, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm, except that it is impermissible to impose consecutive mandatory minimum terms on a violent habitual felony offender where the offenses arose from the same criminal episode. Daniels v. State, 595 So.2d 952 (Fla. 1992). Further, the state concedes error. We reverse this aspect and remand for resentencing to correct the error.

AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART; REMANDED.

HERSEY and KLEIN, JJ., and OWEN, WILLIAM C., Jr., Senior Judge, concur.
