Cruz v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District

669 So. 2d 361 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1996)

Opinion

No. 95-1415.

March 15, 1996.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Lake County, Don F. Briggs, Judge.

James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and James T. Cook, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant.

No Appearance for Appellee.


We affirm the judgment and sentence in this Anders appeal, except for the assessment of $250 for a public defender's fee. It appears from the record that the defendant was not informed of his right to contest the amount of the fee as required by Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.720 (d)(1), so the fee is stricken without prejudice to reimpose it after compliance with the rule.

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967).

DAUKSCH, W. SHARP and HARRIS, JJ., concur.
