KHOUZAM, Judge.

John Wesley Ellis appeals an order denying his motion to correct illegal sentence filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a). Ellis was convicted in August 1998 of sexual battery by an adult on a child under twelve and burglary of a dwelling with assault or battery. He was sentenced as a prison releasee reoffender (PRR) to life in prison for each conviction. We affirm but write to discuss two of Ellis's claims.
