1Opinion of the Court

CONFESSION OF ERROR

2Per curiam

Upon the State’s proper confession of error, we reverse and remand with directions for the trial court to grant the defendant credit for time served as reflected in the court’s oral pronouncement of sentence. See Sconiers v. State, 734 So.2d 427 (Fla. 3d DCA 1999)(a written order must conform to the court’s oral pronouncements); Jivanjee v. State, 724 So.2d 108 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998)(error to impose sentence not in conformance with oral pronouncement).
