Opinion of the Court
We originally accepted jurisdiction to determine whether an escalating pattern of more serious offenses is a valid reason for sentencing guidelines departure. In Keys v. State, 500 So.2d 184 (Fla. 1986), we recently resolved this issue consistent with the district court. Accordingly, we approve the district court decision on this issue.
It is so ordered.
