Bright v. State

Bright v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 21, 1996 · Dauksch, Griffin, Peterson
675 So. 2d 260; 1996 Fla. App. LEXIS 6651; 1996 WL 339122 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Bright v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In this Anders appeal, we affirm the judgment and sentence imposed, but strike the imposition of public defender’s fees because the record does not establish that appellant was advised of his right to contest the amount of the fee. See Allmond v. State, 668 So.2d 1120 (Fla. 5th DCA 1996). On remand, the trial court may reconsider the imposition of the fee after compliance with Rule 3.720(d)(1), Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure.

JUDGMENT and SENTENCE AFFIRMED; PUBLIC DEFENDER’S FEE STRICKEN; and REMANDED.

PETERSON, C.J., and DAUKSCH and GRIFFIN, JJ., concur.
