District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

July 5, 2000.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles Kaplan of the Law Office of Kaplan & Singhal, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Heidi L. Bettendorf, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.

FARMER, J.

We affirm defendant's conviction and write only to address his sentence as both a habitual felony offender (HFO) and a prison releasee reoffender (PRR). The conviction is armed robbery; the sentence is life. On the sentencing form, the trial judge checked both the blocks for the HFO statute and the PRR statute.

Under HFO, the trial judge could impose a maximum of life,1 while under PRR the maximum is 30 years.
