IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA FIFTH DISTRICT NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED CHARLES LEE SEMKO, Appellant, v. Case No. 5D16-996 STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed December 2, 2016 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Citrus County, Richard A. Howard, Judge. Charles Lee Semko, Milton, pro se. James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and George D.E. Burden, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Marjorie Vincent-Tripp, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. In this Anders appeal1, we affirm as to all issues raised by Appellant, Charles L. Semko. However, we note a scrivener’s error in the sentence. The trial court orally pronounced that the statutory maximum sentence would be imposed for Count Two 1 Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). (grand theft), which is five years in prison; but the written judgment reflects a sentence of fifteen years for that count. We, therefore, remand this case to the trial court to correct this scrivener’s error. AFFIRMED and REMANDED for correction of scrivener’s error. SAWAYA, TORPY and WALLIS, JJ., concur. 2
