Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant complains that the trial court erred in sua sponte requiring the jury to reconsider the appellees’ damages on the ground that the verdict was inconsistent. Based on Allstate Insurance Co. v. Manasse, 707 So. 2d 1110 (Fla.1998), the appellees concede error. We therefore reverse and remand for entry of a judgment in accordance with the initial verdict in this case.

WARNER, POLEN and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
