Appeal from the Circuit Court for

SALARIO, Judge.
Rochelle Jones challenges the revocation of her drug-offender probation
and resulting sentences in this appeal that is proceeding pursuant to Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). We affirm without comment and remand solely to have
the trial court enter a written revocation order that matches its oral pronouncement after
the violation hearing.
In September 2015, Ms. Jones' probation officer filed an affidavit of
violation of probation charging Ms. Jones with one violation of condition nine for her
failure to comply with the instructions of her probation officer and two violations of
condition eleven for twice refusing to submit to random testing as directed by her
probation officer. The violations stemmed from an incident during which Ms. Jones
attempted to "defraud a drug test" and failed to remain at the probation office to take a
subsequent test despite receiving instructions from her probation officer to do so.
After an evidentiary hearing on November 5, 2015, the trial court orally
pronounced that Ms. Jones had violated condition eleven of her drug-offender probation
and sentenced her to forty-four months' prison. The written order of revocation
subsequently entered by the trial court, however, states that Ms. Jones committed one
violation of condition nine and two violations of condition twelve. "A written order of
revocation must conform to the oral pronouncement at the hearing." Narvaez v. State,
674 So. 2d 868, 869 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996); see also Margolis v. State, 148 So. 3d 532,
532 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014) (remanding for the entry of a corrected order of revocation to
reflect the conditions of probation the defendant admitted violating). Thus, although we
affirm the trial court's decision to revoke Ms. Jones' probation, we remand with
instructions to enter a revocation order that conforms to the oral pronouncement that
Ms. Jones was found to have committed a single violation of condition eleven of her
drug offender probation. See Symes v. State, 193 So. 3d 1067 (Fla. 2d DCA 2016);
Narvaez, 674 So. 2d at 869.
Affirmed; remanded with instructions.
