Stephanie M. SOUSIE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
This appeal pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), involves three Walton County cases—a 2014 conviction as to which Appellant violated her probation, and two new law offenses in 2016 that triggered the violation. We affirm Appellant's convictions and sentences, and instruct the lower court to correct a scrivener's error on the judgment, which includes a count that had been dismissed.
The 2014 conviction was charged as grand theft under sections 812.014(1)(a), (b), (2)(b), Florida Statutes (2014). The judgment on appeal cites this crime as Count I of Case No. 14-CF-598, “Larceny greater than $20K but less than $100k.” The record reflects, however, that this count was dismissed during the original proceedings. It does not appear on the original judgment, the order revoking probation, or the scoresheets in the record. On remand the trial court shall enter an amended judgment deleting this reference. See King v. State, 201 So.3d 206 (Fla. 1st DCA 2016) (affirming an Anders appeal but remanding for correction of scrivener's errors in the written judgment); Washington v. State, 37 So.3d 376 (Fla. 1st DCA 2010) (same).
Affirmed and Remanded with instructions.
Per Curiam.
Lewis, Kelsey, and Winsor, JJ., concur.
