Dix v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 13, 1998 · Northcutt, Salcines, Whatley
721 So. 2d 398; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 14324; 1998 WL 796735 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Dix v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Raymond T. Dix, III, appeals his judgment and sentence for first-degree arson. He also challenges the imposition of certain costs. We affirm the conviction and the portion of his sentence reflecting the imposition of costs, without discussion. The trial court, however, sentenced Dix as a habitual offender without the requisite number of prior convictions. Because Dix was improperly sentenced as a habitual offender, we reverse that portion of his sentence and remand for resentencing.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded for proceedings consistent with this opinion.

WHATLEY, A.C.J., and NORTHCUTT and SALCINES, JJ., Concur.
