Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the trial court’s denial of Henry’s motion for postconviction relief, but remand for correction of the scrivener’s error in the written judgment. See Rodriguez v. State, 223 So. 3d 1053, 1054 (Fla. 2d DCA 2017). As the state concedes, the written judgment should reflect a conviction for robbery with a weapon and include a citation to the correct statute, section 812.13(2)(b), Florida Statutes (1997). Henry need not be present when these scrivener’s errors are corrected. See Shuey v. State, 950 So. 2d 1285 (Fla. 5th DCA 2007).

Remanded with instructions. DAMOORGIAN, CIKLIN and FORST, JJ., concur.

* * * Not final until disposition of timely filed motion for rehearing.
