v. CASE NO. 1D15-1377

STATE OF FLORIDA,

Appellee.

_____________________________/

Opinion filed March 8, 2016.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Duval County. Mark J. Borello, Judge.

Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender, and Glenna Joyce Reeves, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee for Appellant; William Henry Cain, pro se.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm Appellant’s judgment and sentence for sale or delivery of

cocaine, but based on the state’s proper concession of error in response to our Harrison order,1 we reverse the imposition of the $100 cost for the FDLE

Operating Trust Fund pursuant to section 938.055, Florida Statutes, and the $100

sheriff’s investigative cost pursuant to section 938.27. The trial court did not

orally pronounce these costs at the sentencing hearing. See Nix v. State, 84 So. 3d

424, 426 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012).

On remand, the trial court may reimpose the FDLE Operating Trust Fund

cost after following the proper procedure. Id. However, the sheriff’s investigatory

cost may not be reimposed on remand because the record does not show that the

state requested this cost. See Mills v. State, 177 So. 3d 984 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015);

Bratton v. State, 156 So. 3d 590 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015); Cook v. State, 149 So. 3d

118 (Fla. 1st DCA 2014).

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part and REMANDED with directions.
