DWAYNE HIGGS, APPELLANT, vs. THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE.

PER CURIAM.

The appellant, who was convicted of strong-arm robbery and thereafter sentenced under the "Officer Evelyn Gort and All Fallen Officers Career Criminal Act of 1995", Chapter 95-182, Laws of Florida, now appeals claiming that the said Act is unconstitutional. Specifically, appellant contends that the Act violates the single subject rule of the Florida Constitution. Art. III, § 6, Fla. Const.

We disagree and specifically hold that there is a reasonable and rational relationship between each of the sections of the said Act. Accordingly, the appellant's conviction and sentence are, in all respects, affirmed.

Affirmed.
