Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Wilson, 594 So.2d 330, 331 (Fla. 3d DCA 1992); and (b) the court does not have jurisdiction to award gain time. See State v. Green, 547 So.2d 925, 927 (Fla. 1989); Singletary v. Coronado, 673 So.2d 924 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996); Henderson v. State, 632 So.2d 653, 654 (Fla. 5th DCA 1994); see also *717Young v. State, 439 So.2d 306, 308 (Fla. 5th DCA 1983).
