     PER CURIAM.
      Affirmed. See Walden v. State, 112 So. 3d 578, 580 (Fla. 4th DCA

2013) (“[E]rrors in the assessment of costs . . . are not subject to correction

through rule 3.800(a).”); Branch v. State, 322 So. 3d 209, 210 (Fla. 1st DCA

2021) (“[C]hallenges to . . . the procedure employed by the court when

imposing fines and costs . . . are not challenges to an ‘illegal sentence’

correctable under rule 3.800(a).”); Blakley v. State, 746 So. 2d 1182, 1186-

87 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999) (“To be illegal within the meaning of rule 3.800(a)[,]

the sentence must impose a kind of punishment that no judge under the

entire body of sentencing statutes could possibly inflict under any set of

factual circumstances.”); see also Hoffman v. State, 413 So. 2d 150, 151

(Fla. 4th DCA 1982) (“[Florida Rules of Civil Procedure do] not apply to a

criminal proceeding in a circuit court . . . [or to] appellate proceedings in the

circuit court.”).
