Case No. 5D21-1989 LT Case No. 2021-01209-CT STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed December 30, 2021 Appeal from the County Court for St. Johns County, Alexander R. Christine, Jr., Judge. Matthew J. Metz, Public Defender, and Teresa D. Sutton, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Kaylee D. Tatman, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. We affirm Appellant’s convictions without discussion. However, we note that the trial court erroneously imposed a $50 investigative cost that was not requested by the State or agency and was not orally pronounced. Thus, we remand for the trial court to strike this investigative cost. See Lewis v. State, 306 So. 3d 399 (Fla. 5th DCA 2020). AFFIRMED and REMANDED with instructions. EVANDER, WALLIS and WOZNIAK, JJ., concur. 2
