Locus v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 17, 2001 · Barfield, Polston, Wolf
785 So. 2d 594; 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 5053; 2001 WL 376442 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Locus v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the appellant’s conviction. However, the trial court did not have jurisdiction to hold a restitution hearing once the appellant filed a notice of appeal. See Brantley v. State, 723 So.2d 909 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999). As a result, we reverse and remand for the trial court to conduct another hearing and impose restitution again should it elect to do so.

AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part, and REMANDED for further proceedings.

BARFIELD, C.J., WOLF and POLSTON, JJ., concur.
