PER CURIAM.

¶1We have for review Weems v. State, 582 So.2d 830, 830 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991), in which the district court certified the following question of great public importance: *

Is a first degree felony punishable by a term of years not exceeding life imprisonment subject to an enhanced sentence pursuant to the provisions of the habitual violent felony offender statute?
We answered this question in the affirmative in Burdick v. State, 594 So.2d 267 (Fla.1992). We therefore approve the opinion below.

¶2It is so ordered.

SHAW, C.J., and OVERTON, McDonald, barkett, grimes, KOGAN and HARDING, JJ., concur.

¶3 We have jurisdiction pursuant to article V, section 3(b)(4) of the Florida Constitution.
