PER CURIAM.

In this Anders1 appeal, we affirm Appellant’s judgment and sentence. However, we remand for the entry of a corrected judgment striking the $100 fee for investigative costs because the State never requested investigative costs. See Richards v. State,

1 Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). 288 So. 3d 574, 577 (Fla. 2020) (“[T]he State must request investigative costs to make a defendant liable for those costs . . . .”).

AFFIRMED and REMANDED with instructions.

JAY, C.J., and EISNAUGLE and SOUD, JJ., concur.
