v.

Fla. 2d DCA | 1982-09-17
No. 81-1936
HOBSON, A. C. J., and SCHEB and DANAHY, JJ., concur.
419 So. 2d 409 Florida District Court of Appeal, Second District (1982) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Defendant appeals his conviction for assault charges. The trial court sentenced defendant to sixty days for assault and five years for aggravated assault. The multiple convictions are proper but the multiple sentences are not since assault is a lesser-included charge of aggravated assault. State v. Hegstrom, 401 So. 2d 1343 (Fla.1981). Because this is so, we remand the cause to the trial court with directions to vacate the sixty-day sentence for assault. We affirm all of defendant’s convictions and all other sentences.

HOBSON, A. C. J., and SCHEB and DANAHY, JJ., concur.

State, 430 So. 2d 617 (Fla. 2d DCA 1983); Ervin v. State, 419 So. 2d 409 (Fla. 2d DCA 1982). Id. at 153. Thus, Barton states that the lesser conviction and the lesser sentence should be vacated, and assumes that the lesser conviction will carry the lesser sentence. As a result, neither Barton nor Pizzo resolve the issue…

State v. Hegstrom, 401 So. 2d 1343 (Fla.1981); Ervin v. State, 419 So. 2d 409 (Fla. 2d DCA 1981). Therefore, we vacate the sixty day sentence for petit theft.
