Arnold v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 23, 1987 · Barfield, Nimmons, Shivers
509 So. 2d 1379; 12 Fla. L. Weekly 1777; 1987 Fla. App. LEXIS 9522 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Arnold v. State

Opinion of the Court

BARFIELD, Judge.

The imposition of court costs in the amount of $24.50 is reversed as appellant was not afforded prior notice nor an opportunity to object to them. Jenkins v. State, 444 So.2d 947 (Fla. 1984). The portions of the final judgment ordering such costs are struck. On remand, a hearing must be held in the event these costs are to be reassessed. The final written judgment is also to be amended to reflect the trial court’s oral pronouncement of 60 hours of community service in lieu of costs under section 27.3455(1), Florida Statutes.

SHIVERS and NIMMONS, JJ., concur.
