Before COPE and GERSTEN, JJ., and NESBITT, Senior Judge.
The decision in Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 (2000), does not apply to the appellant's adjudication as a habitual violent felony offender. Saldo v. State, 789 So.2d 1150 (Fla. 3d DCA 2001); Robbinson v. State, 784 So.2d 1246 (Fla. 3d DCA 2001).
It is unnecessary for present purposes to decide whetherApprendi is retroactive.
