1Opinion of the Court

WHATLEY, Judge.

Francis Golz appeals the habitual offender sentences he received on remand. The State correctly concedes the sentences are improper.

Golz was originally sentenced to two consecutive terms of 5 years in prison as a habitual offender. In Golz v. State, 674 So.2d 856 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996), this court affirmed the two sentences but directed the trial court to run the sentences concurrently based on Hale v. State, 630 So.2d 521 (Fla.1993).
