Pamela Jo Bondi , Attorney General, Tallahassee, and John M. Klawikofsky , Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.

DAVIS, Judge.

Francis Paul Sicola challenges his conviction and sentence for first-degree murder. He was convicted following a jury trial, and the trial court sentenced him to life imprisonment. We affirm and write only to address Sicola's argument that the trial court committed fundamental reversible error by giving a certain jury instruction on manslaughter as a lesser included offense of first-degree murder.
