C. Cr. P.' arts. 821 and 853. Accordingly, the defendant’s sentence is hereby vacated and the matter is remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. The defendant may appeal any ad *380 verse rulings or any sentence subsequently imposed. State v. Jackson, 614 So.2d 783 (La.App. 2d Cir.1993). SENTENCE VACATED; REMANDED FOR FURTHER PROCEEDINGS.
