DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA
                        SECOND DISTRICT

                            ALLON NAVARRO,

                                 Appellant,

                                     v.

                           STATE OF FLORIDA,

                                 Appellee.

                               No. 2D23-974

                               April 3, 2024

Appeal from the County Court for Pasco County; Joseph Poblick, Judge.

Howard L. Dimmig, II, Public Defender, and Clark E. Green, Assistant
Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.

Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.
     In this appeal filed pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738
(1967), Allon Navarro challenges his judgment and sentence for driving
while license suspended or revoked (second or subsequent offense).
While we affirm Navarro's judgment and sentence, we remand with
directions for the trial court to withdraw its earlier order denying
Navarro's pro se motion to withdraw plea and to instead enter an order
dismissing the motion. See Mingo v. State, 914 So. 2d 1070, 1070 (Fla.
2d DCA 2005) (explaining that where appellant filed his pro se motion to
withdraw plea after he filed his notice of appeal, the trial court lacked
jurisdiction to consider the motion and should have dismissed rather
than denied it). Our affirmance is without prejudice to Navarro's right to
file a motion pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850.
     Affirmed; remanded with directions.

SILBERMAN, MORRIS, and ROTHSTEIN-YOUAKIM, JJ., Concur.
