PER CURIAM.

    We reverse the county court’s order finding the mandatory $5,000
civil penalty imposed for solicitation of prostitution under section
796.07(6), Florida Statutes (2014), to be unconstitutionally excessive.
See State v. Jones, No. 4D14-3019 (Fla. 4th DCA Dec. 2, 2015). We
remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

  Reversed and Remanded.
