Docket NumberNo. 76--474,76--474
Citation342 So.2d 557
PartiesCarmelo GONZALEZ, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.
CourtFlorida District Court of Appeals

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Elliot H. Scherker, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert L. Shevin, Atty. Gen. and Joel D. Rosenblatt, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before HENDRY, C.J., and PEARSON and HAVERFIELD, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant was convicted under a three count information of robbery, carrying a concealed firearm and unlawful possession of a firearm while engaged in a criminal offense. The trial court imposed a sentence of life imprisonment on all three convictions.

Appellant contends on appeal that the trial court erred in imposing a general sentence upon the three convictions rather than separate sentences. We find appellant's contention to be without merit. See Carter v. State, 330 So.2d 508 (Fla.4th DCA 1976); Dorfman v. State, 333 So.2d 481 (Fla.3d DCA 1976); and Bisono v. State, 333 So.2d 484 (Fla.3d DCA 1976).

Affirmed.
