Opinion

PER CURIAM.

In this Anders appeal, 1 the public defender lien must be stricken as Appellant was not advised of her right to object to the amount of the lien. See Bruno v. State, 960 So.2d 907 (Fla. 2d DCA 2007); Wines v. State, 690 So.2d 684 (Fla. 5th DCA 1997); Nieves v. State, 678 So.2d 468 (Fla. 5th DCA 1996). 2 On remand, the lien may be reimposed by the court after complying with Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.720(d)(1). In all other respects, the judgment and sentence are affirmed.

AFFIRMED; REMANDED TO STRIKE LIEN.
