PER CURIAM.
Appellant appeals his conviction and sentence for two counts of attempted first-degree murder and one count of felony fleeing or attempting to elude a law enforcement officer. We affirm Appellant’s conviction and sentence but remand for correction of a scrivener’s error contained in the written judgment. See Dennis v. State, 917 So. 2d 288 (Fla. 1st DCA 2005). The judgment erroneously lists Appellant’s conviction as a life felony; however, Appellant was tried and convicted of attempted first-degree murder, which is a first-degree felony. Therefore, the judgment must be corrected to reflect Appellant’s conviction for a first-degree felony, not a life felony. §§ 777.04(4)(b), 782.04(l)(a), Fla. Stat. (2003).
AFFIRMED and REMANDED with instructions.

Rumph v. State, 217 So. 3d 1092 (Fla. 5th DCA 2017)…(Fla. 4th DCA 2009)). If the trial court finds that the defendant is competent to proceed, it must enter a written order adjudicating the defendant competent. Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.212(b), (c)(7); Molina, 946 So. 2d at 1105 n.1 (citing Bailey v. State, 931 So. 2d 224 (Fla. 1st DCA 2006)).
