Vance v. State
Vance v. State
Opinion
Quarice Lovell Vance challenges his judgments and sentences for the sale of cocaine within 1000 feet of a school and possession of cocaine. Vance was sentenced as a habitual felony offender on both offenses. Vance argues, and we agree, that the trial court erred in imposing a habitual felony offender sentence for the offense of possession of cocaine. See § 775.084(l)(a)(3), Fla. Stat. (2007); Bass v. State, 894 So.2d 303, 303 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005).
Accordingly, we reverse and remand for the trial court to strike Vance’s designation as a habitual felony offender from his sentence for possession of cocaine. In all other respects, we affirm.
Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.
