The court of appeal opinion upsets the district court’s sentence and remands the case for the imposition of a new sentence. After remand to the district court, Relator will be afforded the opportunity to appeal the conviction and newly imposed sentence and have both the conviction and sentence examined on appeal. That being the case, we agree to the denial of Relator’s writ application without resolving whether or not the court of appeal has erred in upset*1122ting the district court’s ten-year sentence. For the foregoing reasons, we concur in the denial of the writ.

assigns the following additional concurring reasons.

In my view, the ten-year sentence imposed by the district court was proper under the facts of this case, and a more onerous sentence, including the mandatory penalty under the Habitual Offender Law, would be excessive under the criteria set forth in State v. Dorthey, 623 So.2d 1276 (La. 1993).
