PER CURIAM.

REVERSED. See Simmons v. State, 274 So. 3d 468, 472 (Fla. 1st DCA 2019) (holding that the trial court lacked jurisdiction to rescind its order granting postconviction relief once the order became final when neither party timely moved for rehearing under Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.800(b)(1)(B) or timely appealed it).

As in Simmons, we quash the order on appeal and remand with directions that the trial court reinstate the order granting Appellant’s rule 3.800(a) motion. The trial court should then resentence Appellant to a lawful sentence.

RAY, C.J., and ROWE and TANENBAUM, JJ., concur. _____________________________
