Wachsmuth v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 30, 2005 · Davis, Ervin, Lewis
917 So. 2d 375; 2005 Fla. App. LEXIS 20366; 2005 WL 3555712 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Wachsmuth v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm appellant’s criminal judgment and sentence. However, we reverse the imposition of the public defender lien because the trial court failed to inform appellant of his right to contest the amount of the lien before imposition. See Saunders v. State, 863 So.2d 458, 459 (Fla. 1st DCA 2004). Upon remand, appellant should be afforded the opportunity to have a hearing to contest the amount of the public defender lien.

*376AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part, and REMANDED.

ERVIN, DAVIS and LEWIS, JJ., concur.
