We affirm William Butler’s conviction for resisting arrest with violence and his sentence as a violent career criminal. See Brown v. State, 789 So.2d 366 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001) (affirming prison releasee reof-fender sentence when battery on a law enforcement officer was qualifying forcible felony). On the sentencing issue, we certify conflict with Hearns v. State, 912 So.2d 377 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005) (holding that battery on a law enforcement officer does not always constitute forcible felony for enhanced sentencing), review granted, 926 So.2d 1270 (Fla.2006).
Affirmed; conflict certified.
