MORRIS v. STATE
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
Apr 29, 1998
PATTERSON, Judge.
John Morris appeals from his sentence as a violent career criminal for offenses occurring on February 6, 1996. InThompson v. State, 23 Fla. L. Weekly D713 (Fla. 2d DCA Mar. 13, 1998), this court held that chapter 95-182, Laws of Florida, which created violent career criminal sentencing, is unconstitutional as a violation of the single subject rule. Thus, based on Thompson, we reverse Morris's violent career criminal sentence and remand for resentencing in accordance with the valid laws in effect at the time of Morris's sentencing on July 30, 1996.
Reversed and remanded.
FRANK, A.C.J., and WHATLEY, J., Concur.
