ON MOTION FOR REHEARING


PER CURIAM.

This cause is before us on Appellant's motion for rehearing. We deny the motion for rehearing, but withdraw our previous opinion of June 10, 2014, and substitute this opinion in its place.

Appellant appeals his conviction of four counts of sexual battery on a child under the age of 12; one count of solicitation to commit the offense of Sexual Battery Upon a Child Under 12 Years of Age, in violation of sections 777.04(2) and 794.011(2), Florida Statutes; one count of solicitation of a minor to commit a lewd or lascivious act, contrary to section 800.04(6), Florida Statutes; and one count of showing pornography to a child, in violation of section 847.0133(1), Florida Statutes.

We affirm the battery convictions and the conviction for violating section 847.0133(1) without further comment. We affirm the conviction for solicitation based on section 800.04(6), Florida Statutes, pursuant to Cleveland v. State, 135 So.3d 425 (Fla. 1st DCA 2014). We reverse Appellant's conviction for solicitation based on sections 777.04(2) and 794.011(2), Florida Statutes. See F.B. v. State, 852 So.2d 226, 229 (Fla.2003); Patel v. State, 679 So.2d 850, 851 (Fla. 1st DCA 1996). We therefore vacate Appellant's conviction on this charge and remand for resentencing.

AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part, and REMANDED for resentencing. BENTON, VAN NORTWICK, and THOMAS, JJ., concur.
