¶1Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Patrick B. Burke, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

¶2Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Diane F. Medley, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.

¶3PER CURIAM.

¶4We grant the public defender's motion to withdraw as appellate counsel, Anders v. California,386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). The Anders brief identified one minor sentencing error which we write to address while affirming in all other respects.

¶5The public defender's fee imposed in this case is stricken because the trial court did not give appellant notice of his right to contest the amount of the fee. § 938.29(5), Fla. Stat. (2005); Fla. R.Crim. P. 3.720(d)(1). See also Smiley v. State,590 So.2d 1116 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991); Hostzclaw v. State,561 So.2d 1323 (Fla. 4th DCA 1990). On remand, the fee may be reimposed after compliance with the rule. Jones v. State,624 So.2d 812 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). The defendant need not be present for resentencing. Id.
