STATE OF FLORIDA,

Appellee.

________________________________/

Opinion filed November 30, 2018 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Citrus County, Richard A. Howard, Judge. Matthew R. McLain, of McLain Law, P.A., Longwood, for Appellant. Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Lori N. Hagan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. Because the judgment recites that Appellant was convicted after a plea, rather than after trial, we remand for correction of this scrivener’s error. We otherwise affirm, without discussion, Appellant’s judgment and sentence. AFFIRMED; REMANDED FOR CORRECTION OF SCRIVENER’S ERROR. EVANDER, BERGER and GROSSHANS, JJ., concur.
