PER CURIAM. In this consolidated appeal we find no fundamental error based on the prosecutor’s closing argument in appellant’s trial for attempted first degree murder of a law enforcement deputy. We therefore affirm appellant’s judgment of conviction. However, because the trial court erred by imposing a public defender fee above the statutory minimum of $100 without making factual findings in support of the additional amount, we reverse the public defender fee and remand for the trial court to reduce the fee to $100 or hold a hearing. See Alexis v. State, 211 So. 3d 81 (Fla. 4th DCA 2017). Affirmed in part, Reversed in part, and Remanded. TAYLOR, CONNER and KUNTZ, JJ., concur.
