                 _____________________________

                      Case No. 5D22-1453

                 _____________________________

RICHARD COLLAKE,

    Appellant,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Appellee.
                 _____________________________

On appeal from the Circuit Court for Volusia County.
Leah R. Case, Judge.

David Maldonado, of The Maldonado Law Firm, P.A., Lakeland,
for Appellant.

Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Allison L.
Morris, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

                       December 21, 2023

PER CURIAM.

    In this Anders * case, Appellant Richard Collake appeals the
judgment and sentence resulting from his open plea of no contest,

    * See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).
whereby Collake reserved the right to appeal the trial court’s
denial of his three motions to suppress. We have jurisdiction. See
Art. V, § 4(b)(1), Fla. Const.; Fla. R. App. P. 9.030(b)(1)(A).

     We affirm the court’s denial of Collake’s motions. However, we
reverse the $100.00 cost of investigation imposed by the trial court
pursuant to section 938.27(1), Florida Statutes (2017), as the State
failed to request such cost. See Richards v. State, 288 So. 3d 574
(Fla. 2020). This case is remanded for the trial court to enter an
amended judgment and sentence without the cost of investigation.

    In all other respects, we affirm.

    AFFIRMED IN PART AND REVERSED IN PART.

LAMBERT, SOUD, and MACIVER, JJ., concur.

                 _____________________________

    Not final until disposition of any timely and
    authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
    9.331.
