No. 4D99-3040.

784 So.2d 527 (2001)

Garrett BROWN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

Rehearing Denied May 24, 2001.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Louis G. Carres, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

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


PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Garrett Brown, was convicted of armed burglary of a dwelling and three counts of robbery with a firearm while wearing a mask. The trial judge sentenced Brown to life imprisonment under the habitual felony offender (HFO) and prison releasee reoffender (PRR) statutes. We affirm his convictions, but reverse the sentence imposing both HFO and PRR sanctions. In view of the length of the sentences imposed, only the PRR sentence was appropriate.
