PER CURIAM.
John Edward Butchek challenges the trial court's denial of his motion filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). In his motion he denies possessing a firearm during the robbery of which he was convicted, and argues that the three-year mandatory minimum sentence imposed is consequently illegal. The trial court determined that the issue is not cognizable in a rule 3.800(a) proceeding, and denied the motion. We reverse.
