Per Curiam.

Kenyanna Racquel Cheeks seeks relief from her judgment and sentence for sale of cocaine and solicitation for prostitution. Ms. Cheeks argues that the evidence was insufficient to overcome her defense of entrapment, the trial court erroneously overruled an objection to the admission of a jail call, and the trial court improperly imposed a discretionary fine pursuant to section 775.083, Florida Statutes, and a surcharge pursuant to section 938.04, Florida Statutes. We reject the first two arguments without comment. However, we agree with the State's concession that the trial court erred when it included the discretionary fine and surcharge in the written judgment and sentence because neither was orally imposed at sentencing. Lamoreaux v. State , 88 So.3d 379, 381 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012). Accordingly, we strike the $ 5,000 fine and $ 250 surcharge and remand for entry of a corrected judgment and sentence consistent with this opinion. Id. ; see also Calhoun v. State , 259 So.3d 288, 290 (Fla. 1st DCA 2018).

AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part, and REMANDED with directions.

Ray, Kelsey, and Jay, JJ., concur.
