BADALAMENTI, Judge.
Richard Albert Roberts appeals his jury conviction for capital sexual battery and the resulting life sentence and sexual predator designation imposed by the trial court. Roberts contends that the trial court erred by designating him a sexual predator pursuant to the Florida Sexual Predators Act. After careful review and the benefit of oral argument, we accept the States concession that the sexual predator designation was error and reverse that portion of Robertss sentence.
The sexual predator designation applies to an offense committed on or after October 1, 1993. See § 775.21(4)(a), Fla. Stat. (2015). Here, the felony information charges that the offense occurred approximately a decade prior to October 1, 1993. The trial court nevertheless designated Roberts a sexual predator pursuant to section 775.21 in a written order dated July 1, 2015, and indicated the same in Robertss judgment. As the State properly concedes, this was error. See Wade v. State, 728 So.2d 284, 285 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999) (Because [the defendants] offenses were committed prior to October 1, 1993, we conclude that he did not meet the criteria for a sexual predator designation.), receded from on other grounds by King v. State, 911 So.2d 229 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005) ; see also Dennis v. State, 32 So.3d 79, 80 (Fla. 2d DCA 2009).
On remand, the trial court shall strike Robertss sexual predator designation imposed for the conviction in this case and enter an amended judgment omitting this designation. See Dennis, 32 So.3d at 81 ; Wade, 728 So.2d at 285. We affirm his conviction and resulting life sentence in all other respects.
Affirmed in part; reversed in part; remanded with instructions.

See ch. 93-277, § 1, at 2621, Laws of Fla.
Prior to filing his initial brief in this appeal, Roberts timely filed a Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(b) motion, requesting that the trial court correct his sentence by removing the sexual predator designation. Because the trial court failed to rule on this motion within sixty days, the motion was deemed denied by the trial court. See Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.800(b)(2)(B).
We have carefully reviewed all arguments raised by Roberts in this appeal. We reject his remaining arguments without comment.
