Docket entry

171555 Botkin v. Commonwealth 11/01/2018 The judgment of the Court of Appeals of Virginia is affirmed as to its interpretation of Code § 18.2-308.2(A). Mandatory minimum terms of confinement ordered pursuant to Code § 18.2-308.2(A) must run consecutively with any other sentence, including other mandatory minimum terms ordered pursuant to Code § 18.2-308.2(A). Because this defendant's sentences were run concurrently, those sentences are vacated and the case is remanded to the Court of Appeals with direction to remand to the circuit court for resentencing consistent with this opinion.
