Chiramonte v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 9, 2004 · Covington, Davis, Silberman
881 So. 2d 1136; 2004 Fla. App. LEXIS 10085; 2004 WL 1530827 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Chiramonte v. State

Opinion of the Court

COVINGTON, Judge.

Michael Chiramonte appeals the restitution order entered following his guilty plea to burglary of a structure, grand theft, and grand theft of a motor vehicle. After a hearing, the court awarded the sum of $2100 in restitution for $2000 in damage to the truck and $100 for the cost of recovering stolen air tools. The State concedes, and we agree, that the $2000 assessment imposed by the court was based on improper hearsay evidence concerning the cost to repair damage to the truck. We reverse and remand the order entered April 28, 2003, for a new restitution hearing. See Sherwood v. State, 832 So.2d 926 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002).

Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.

DAVIS and SILBERMAN, JJ., concur.
