•'Per Curiam.

Gary Richard McGriff appeals an order summarily denying his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 motion for post-conviction’ relief alleging ineffective assistance of counsel. We reverse and remand for further review of appellant’s claim that he rejected a favorable plea offer because counsel failed to advise that he qualified for enhanced sentencing as a habitual felony offender.
