Saldana v. State
District Court of Appeal of Florida
1Opinion of the Court
SILBERMAN, Judge.
Elíseo Gonzales Saldana seeks review of his judgment and sentences for attempted second-degree murder and shooting at, within, or into a building. Saldana challenges the jury instruction on attempted manslaughter by act, the admission of collateral crime evidence, and the imposition of consecutive sentences. We affirm Sal-dana’s convictions but write to address his challenge to the jury instruction on attempted manslaughter by act. We reverse Saldana’s consecutive sentences because, as the State concedes, they are illegal under Hale v. State, 630 So.2d 521 (Fla.1993).
