Per Curiam.
During the underlying violation of community control proceedings, appellant was found incompetent and committed to the Department of Children and Families for services.

to proceed. See Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.212(e)(7). There is some suggestion that an expert may have found appellant competent prior to the violation hearing. We therefore remand the case “to determine whether a nunc pro tunc competency determination can be made.” Bain v. State, 211 So.3d 139, 140 (Fla. 4th DCA 2017). If “the court cannot determine appellant’s competency consistent with due process guarantees,” the court shall vacate the violation convictions and sentence and hold a new hearing. Id.
This case is remanded to the circuit court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
