Laurain v. State
Laurain v. State
Opinion of the Court
The appellant, Joseph Laurain, appeals a judgment and sentence for the crime of escape. We affirm the judgment and sentence. We, however, strike a court cost and remand for the appellant to be given the opportunity to object to the amount of the public defender’s hen.
At sentencing, the trial court imposed a public defender’s hen for $750.00 without advising the appellant of his right to a hearing to contest the amount of the hen as required by Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.720(d)(1). It also imposed a discretionary court cost of $2.00, pursuant to section
Affirmed; remanded.
