Harris v. State

657 So. 2d 1284, 1995 Fla. App. LEXIS 8147, 1995 WL 449653

Opinion

ERVIN, Judge.

We affirm appellant’s conviction and sentence for sexual battery, but reverse the trial court’s imposition of a lien for the public defender’s services, because the court did not notify the accused of his right to a hearing to contest the amount. Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.720(d). We remand with directions to the trial court to conduct a hearing, during which appellant may contest the amount of the lien. Stewart v. State, 645 So.2d 580 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994); L.AD. v. State, 616 So.2d 106 (Fla. 1st DCA), review denied, 624 So.2d 268 (Fla.1993).

AFFIRMED IN PART, REVERSED IN PART and REMANDED.

BENTON and VAN NORTWICK, JJ., concur.
