McAULIFFE, Judge.
This appeal involves an increased sentence following retrial. Petitioner contends that the increase is in violation of a Maryland statute or, in the alternative, is prohibited by the Due Process Clause of the United States Constitution. Because we agree that there was a lack of compliance with the requirements of the controlling statute, we shall vacate the sentence without reaching the constitutional issue.
