Marion v. State

Marion v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 10, 1996 · Blue, Schoonover, Whatley
673 So. 2d 918; 1996 Fla. App. LEXIS 4754; 1996 WL 239291 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Marion v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Lisa Marion appeals a fine imposed after she began serving her term of probation. Because it constitutes an impermissible increase in an otherwise legal sentence, we strike the fine. See Coll v. State, 629 So.2d 1056 (Fla. 2d DCA 1993) (holding that a court may not increase a legal sentence after it has begun).

SCHOONOVER, A.C.J., and BLUE and WHATLEY, JJ., concur.
