Scott v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 8, 1989 · Cowart, Orfinger, Sharp
543 So. 2d 1325; 14 Fla. L. Weekly 1385; 1989 Fla. App. LEXIS 3224; 1989 WL 59486 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Scott v. State

Opinion of the Court

ORFINGER, Judge.

The appellant contends, and the State, concedes, that the trial court erred in imposing costs against him at sentencing without providing appellant with notice and an opportunity to be heard. Accordingly, we quash the imposition of costs and remand the cause for reassessment of costs after proper notice and hearing. See Harriel v. State, 520 So.2d 271 (Fla. 1988); Morgan v. State, 527 So.2d 968 (Fla. 5th DCA 1988); Morris v. State, 524 So.2d 494 (Fla. 5th DCA 1988).

Imposition of costs QUASHED; REMANDED.

SHARP, C.J., and COWART, J., concur.
