## Opinion text

PATTERSON, Judge.
We affirm Brown’s judgment and sentence for carjacking; however, we must strike the $255 in costs that the trial court imposed without citation to statutory authority. See Smith v. State, 686 So.2d 8 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996).
Affirmed, costs stricken.
PARKER, C.J., and BLUE, J., concur.
