J.L. v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal
J.L. v. State, 980 So. 2d 1108 (2008)
2008 Fla. App. LEXIS 1826
Polen, Stone
J.L. v. State
Opinion of the Court
We reverse a restitution order entered upon a withheld adjudication for burglary of a dwelling.
It was error to award restitution for repairs and items stolen or damaged, based on estimates of replacement value rather than fair market value. On remand, the trial court should use the fair market value in re-calculating the award for the following items: the carpet, recliner, knife, X-Box and games.
In all other respects, we find no reversible error or abuse of discretion and remand for a new restitution hearing.
