Opinion of the Court

SLEET, Judge.

Joseph Reverdes challenges his convictions and sentences for three counts of attempted first-degree murder and one count of home invasion robbery with a firearm. He was convicted following a jury trial, and the trial court sentenced him on each of the attempted murder convictions to life in prison as a habitual felony offender with a thirty-year prison releasee reoffender (PRR) mandatory minimum and to life in prison as a PRR on the home invasion. We affirm Reverdes' convictions without comment. However, pursuant to Lewars v. State, 42 Fla. L. Weekly D1098 (Fla. 2d DCA May 12, 2017), review granted, SC17-1002 (Fla. Sept. 13, 2017), we reverse Reverdes' sentence on the robbery count as well as the PRR mandatory minimum portions of the sentences imposed on the attempted murder counts. Because the Florida Supreme Court has stayed the mandate and further proceedings in Lewars, we likewise stay the mandate in this case pending disposition of the Lewars petition. See Taylor v. State, 42 Fla. L. Weekly D2551 (Fla. 2d DCA Dec. 6, 2017).

Affirmed in part; reversed in part.
