Lynch v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 4, 1994 · Diamantis, Peterson, Thompson
632 So. 2d 710; 1994 Fla. App. LEXIS 1821; 1994 WL 63293 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Lynch v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The judgment and sentence in this case are affirmed except for the assessment of a public defender’s lien against the defendant. The record does not show that the defendant was advised of his right to a hearing to contest the amount of the lien as required by Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure 3.720(d)(1). See also Smith v. State, 622 So.2d 638 (Fla. 5th DCA 1993). Therefore, the public defender’s lien of $100 is stricken, without prejudice, to the reimposition of the lien upon remand after compliance with Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure 3.720(d)(1).

JUDGMENT and SENTENCE AFFIRMED; REVERSED and REMANDED with directions.

PETERSON, DIAMANTIS and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
