J.F. v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 29, 2007 · Monaco, Palmer, Thompson
961 So. 2d 991; 2007 Fla. App. LEXIS 10072 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

J.F. v. State

Opinion of the Court

PALMER, J.

J.F. appeals her juvenile disposition order, contending that the trial court reversibly erred by ordering her to pay attorney’s fees in the amount of $400.00 without providing her proper notice of her right to contest the amount as required by section 938.30 of the Florida Statutes (2005) and rule 3.720(d) of the Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure. The State properly concedes error. Accordingly, the order requiring J.F. to pay attorney’s fees is hereby stricken, without prejudice. On remand, the fee obligation may be re-imposed, provided the trial court complies with the provisions of the rule. See D.B. v. State, 761 So.2d 1130 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998). Furthermore, based upon our review of the record, we direct that, on remand, this case must be assigned to a different judge.

Order STRICKEN; case REMANDED.

THOMPSON and MONACO, JJ., concur.
