DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA
SECOND DISTRICT
J.K.,
Appellant,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA,
Appellee.
No. 2D22-132
November 2, 2022
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Polk County; Cassandra L.
Denmark, Judge.
Howard L. Dimmig, II, Public Defender, Clark E. Green, Assistant
Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.
Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.
KHOUZAM, Judge.
In this Anders1 appeal, J.K., a juvenile, appeals an order
revoking his probation after the court found that he had violated it.
We affirm in all respects except that we remand for the court to
correct the violation order.
The record shows that although a written violation order was
rendered, it did not specify the conditions that J.K. was found to
have violated. "[T]he law is well-settled: if the trial court revokes a
juvenile's probation, the court is required to render a written order
setting forth the conditions of probation that were violated."
Badgers v. State, 267 So. 3d 512, 513 (Fla. 2d DCA 2019)
(alteration in original) (quoting T.M. v. State, 233 So. 3d 1275, 1275
(Fla. 3d DCA 2017)).
Accordingly, we affirm but remand for the trial court to enter a
written revocation order setting forth the specific conditions of
probation that J.K. was found to have violated. See, e.g., A.T.J.F. v.
State, 78 So. 3d 57, 57 (Fla. 4th DCA 2012) (affirming revocation of
juvenile's probation in Anders appeal but remanding for entry of
written order of revocation specifying conditions found to have been

violated); see also Vidana v. State, 313 So. 3d 206, 206 (Fla. 2d
DCA 2021) (affirming revocation order and sentences in Anders
appeal but remanding for amendment of revocation order to
indicate conditions found to have been violated).
Affirmed; remanded with instructions.
KELLY and ROTHSTEIN-YOUAKIM, JJ., Concur.
