Appellant’s conviction for manslaughter is affirmed, but the sentence which included a mandatory three year minimum is vacated. See Akins v. State, 366 So.2d 1262 (Fla. 4th DCA 1979); Jones v. State, 356 So.2d 4 (Fla. 4th DCA 1977). Accordingly, the cause is remanded for resentencing. Appellant, however, need not be present at the resentencing.
Affirmed, but remanded for resentenc-ing.
HURLEY and DELL, JJ., and GEIGER, DWIGHT L., Associate Judge, concur.
