BENJAMIN v. STATE (2019)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Phillip Arnez BENJAMIN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

No. 1D17-4063

Decided: August 23, 2019

Phillip Arnez Benjamin, pro se, Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

Upon review pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), we find no error with Appellant's judgment or sentence, and affirm. We write only to correct a scrivener's error on Appellant's Criminal Punishment Code Scoresheet. Appellant was found guilty by jury verdict, but his scoresheet incorrectly indicates that the charges were resolved by plea. On remand, the trial court shall correct this error. See, e.g., Carter v. State, 173 So. 3d 1048, 1051 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015) (affirming judgment but remanding for correction of scrivener's error where scoresheet incorrectly indicated plea instead of trial).

Judgment Affirmed and cause Remanded for correction of scrivener's error.

Per Curiam.

Lewis, Osterhaus, and M.K. Thomas, JJ., concur.
