Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Direct Conflict
Fifth District — Case No. 5D97-672
(Orange County)
James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and Susan A. Fagan, Assistant Public Defender, Seventh Judicial Circuit, Daytona Beach, Florida, for Petitioner.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Ann M. Phillips, Belle B. Schumann, and Wesley Heidt, Assistant Attorneys General, Daytona Beach, Florida, for Respondent.
We have for review Adside v. State, 722 So.2d 228 (Fla. 5th DCA 1998), which is in express and direct conflict with Dodson v. State, 710 So.2d 159 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998), on the issue of whether an appellate court may correct an unpreserved error relating to the imposition of court costs and a public defender lien. The Court has jurisdiction. See Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.
Consistent with our decision in Maddox v. State, 760 So.2d 89 (Fla. 2000), we determine that Adside's unpreserved claims relating to court costs and public defender lien do not rise to the level of fundamental error which may be reviewed for the first time on direct appeal. Further, based on our decision in Heggs v. State, 759 So.2d 620 (Fla. 2000), we quash the district court's affirmance of Adside's sentence and remand for resentencing in accordance with the sentencing guidelines in effect on the date of the offense.
Adside has standing to challenge chapter 95-184, Laws of Florida, on single subject rule grounds. See Trapp v. State, 25 Fla. L. Weekly S429 (Fla. June 1, 2000).
It is so ordered.
