Decided: December 31, 2020

Matthew R. McLain, of McLain Law, P.A., Longwood, for Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Carmen F. Corrente, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

We note that at resentencing, Appellant may not be sentenced as a violent career criminal. Pope v. State, 884 So. 2d 328 (Fla. 2d DCA 2004); see State v. Collins, 985 So. 2d 985 (Fla. 2008); Dixon v.
