Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed. The appellant claims that a Richardson1 violation occurred when the state attorney notified him on the day of trial of a detective who would testify to an incriminating statement made by the appellant. The trial court, after inquiring into the circumstances, found no such violation since appellant’s prior counsel had knowledge of the presence of the witness and the defendant’s statement to him. See Ansley v. State, 302 So. 2d 797 (Fla. 1st DCA 1974). In addition, appellant’s counsel was able to take the deposition of the officer to whom the defendant made the statement, and he moved to suppress the statement prior to its admission at trial. Thus, despite finding no violation, the court took steps to cure any potential prejudice and surprise. We find no error in the trial court’s rulings.

We affirm as to the remaining points, particularly finding that no double jeopardy violation occurred in the conviction of carjacking and armed robbery. See Simboli v. State, 728 So. 2d 792, 793 (Fla. 5th DCA 1999), rev. denied, 741 So. 2d 1137 (Fla.1999).

Accordingly, to decide his Heggs claim, on remand the trial .court should have a 1994 sentencing guideline scoresheet prepared showing only those offenses from 1996, as they would have appeared on the lost scoresheet.
