David J. Joffe, of Joffe Law, P.A., Ft. Lauderdale, for Appellant.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Lori N. Hagan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Andre Robinson appeals his sentences for manslaughter with a firearm 1 and

robbery with a weapon,2 imposed after his entry of a no contest plea. Robinson

1 §§ 775.087(1)(b), 782.07(1), Fla. Stat. (2015). 2 § 812.13(2)(b), Fla. Stat. (2015). committed these crimes when he was sixteen years of age. We affirm the concurrent

twenty-two-year prison sentences imposed by the trial court, but reverse in part and

remand for resentencing solely to provide for a judicial review hearing after twenty years

to allow for the possibility of early release. See Kelsey v. State, 206 So. 3d 5, 8 (Fla.

2016) (“[A]ll juvenile offenders whose sentences meet the standard defined by the

Legislature in chapter 2014–220, a sentence longer than twenty years, are entitled to

judicial review.”); see also Dinnall v. State, 43 Fla. L. Weekly D1538 (Fla. 5th DCA July

6, 2018); Montgomery v. State, 230 So. 3d 1256, 1263 (Fla. 5th DCA 2017); Burrows v.

State, 219 So. 3d 910, 911 (Fla. 5th DCA 2017).

AFFIRMED, in part; REVERSED, in part; and REMANDED with instructions.
