McDONALD, Justice.
Pursuant to article V, section 3(b)(4), Florida Constitution, we review State v. Maugeri, 570 So. 2d 1153 (Fla. 4th DCA 1990), in which the district court certified the following question:
DOES AN AGREEMENT UNDER SECTION 893.135(4) AS AMENDED, WHEREBY A CONVICTED DRUG TRAFFICKER WILL RECEIVE A SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCED SENTENCE IN EXCHANGE FOR SETTING UP NEW DRUG DEALS, VIOLATE THE HOLDING IN STATE V GLOSSON, 462 So. 2d 1082 (Fla.1985)?
We answered a similar question in State v. Hunter, 586 So. 2d 319 (Fla.1991), in the negative. Although Hunter discussed a sentence reduction plea under section 893.-135(3), Florida Statutes (1985), our ruling in Hunter would also apply to an agreement under section 893.135(4), Florida Statutes (1989).
Accordingly, the decision under review is quashed and remanded for further consideration in accordance with Hunter. It is so ordered.
SHAW, C.J., and OVERTON, BARKETT, GRIMES, KOGAN and HARDING, JJ., concur.

The trial court denied the motion without a hearing and held that no Hitchcock error occurred and that the other issues were procedurally barred because they could have been raised or were raised previously. Cf Davis v. State, 589 So. 2d 896 (Fla.1991) (Hitchcock is not broad enough to lift the procedural bar of non -Hitchcock issues). We agree with the trial court’s ruling except for one issue. While this appeal was pending, the United States Supreme Court declared our former instruct…

Quince v. State, 732 So. 2d 1059 (Fla. 1999)…dered Quince’s claims of ineffective assistance in Quince v. State, 477 So. 2d 535, 537 (Fla.1985),7 and found that his claims failed to show that counsel’s performance was deficient. The claims are therefore procedurally barred. See Davis v. State, 589 So. 2d 896, 898 (Fla.1991). This case was remanded solely “for an evidentiary hearing on the [Howard Pearl] conflict-of-interest issue.” Quince, 592 So. 2d at 671.8 We find no error in the scope of the hearing below. Quince next claims that he was denied a fa…
