Opinion

584 So.2d 1140 (1991)

STATE of Louisiana
v.
William DICKERSON.

No. 91-K-1120.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

September 6, 1991.

PER CURIAM.

Granted in part.

La.Rev.Stat. 15:529.1 requires that the sentencing judge vacate the original sentence and resentence the defendant as a multiple offender. In resentencing, the judge must impose a sentence authorized by La.Rev.Stat. 15:529.1. That statute does not authorize the imposition of a fine, but only provides for enhanced sentences relating to the term of imprisonment. The trial judge was therefore without authority to impose a fine on resentencing under La.Rev.Stat. 15:529.1.

Accordingly, the fine and default provisions of defendant's sentence are deleted. The application is otherwise denied.
