Johnson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 14, 1999 · Davis, Joanos, Miner
766 So. 2d 225; 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 6332; 1999 WL 303402 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Johnson v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm appellant’s conviction and sentence, including the public defender lien that was imposed without being orally pronounced in open court. However, as in Locke v. State, 719 So.2d 1249, 1252 (Fla. *2261st DCA 1998), we certify to the supreme court the following question as being of great public importance:

DOES THE FAILURE OF THE TRIAL COURT TO ORALLY PRONOUNCE EACH STATUTORILY AUTHORIZED COST INDIVIDUALLY AT THE TIME OF SENTENCING CONSTITUTE FUNDAMENTAL ERROR?
JOANOS, MINER and DAVIS, JJ., CONCUR.
