                 _____________________________

DENIER A. VALENTIN,

    Appellant,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Appellee.
                 _____________________________

On appeal from the Circuit Court for Volusia County.
James R. Clayton, Judge.

Denier A. Valentin, Carrabelle, pro se.

Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Bonnie Jean
Parrish, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

                          April 12,2024

PER CURIAM.

     Appellant, Denier A. Valentin, appeals the lower court’s sua
sponte order directing the trial court clerk to correct his judgment
and sentence to eliminate any duplicative jail credit that was
awarded in error, arguing that the trial court exceeded its
authority in correcting the jail credit amount.
     We affirm on all issues raised by Appellant without further
discussion. However, as raised by the State, the trial court ordered
that no duplicative jail credit should be awarded and directed the
trial court clerk to correct the error, and yet the amended judgment
and sentence still reflects the duplicative jail credit. Therefore, we
remand for the trial court to either correct the written judgment
and sentence itself, or to otherwise calculate and clarify the
appropriate amount of credit that should be reflected in the
written judgment and sentence.

    AFFIRMED and REMANDED with instructions.

JAY, HARRIS, and BOATWRIGHT, JJ., concur.
