Fla. R. App. P. 9.800
Wright v. State, 429 So. 2d 836 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983)
PER CURIAM.
After having revoked the appellant’s probation on two counts of an information charging the commission of third-degree felonies, the trial court sentenced the appellant on each count to a term of ten years, the sentences to run concurrently. The sentences imposed exceeded the five-year maximum allowable by law, see § 775.082(3)(d), Fla.Stat. (1981), and are, accordingly, vacated and the cause remanded for resentenc-ing. Since the record reflects that the trial court’s intent was that the appellant receive a ten-year sentence, the trial court may, if it chooses, accomplish that sentencing goal by imposing consecutive five-year sentences. Streeter v. State, 416 So.2d 1203 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982); Herring v. State, 411 So.2d 966 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982).
Sentences vacated and cause remanded for resentencing.
