M.G. v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District
Aug 2, 1990
564 So. 2d 630 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1990)

Opinion

No. 89-2044.

August 2, 1990.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Volusia County, Patrick G. Kennedy, J.

James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and Lyle Hitchens, Asst. Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Judy Taylor Rush, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for appellee.


The trial judge entered a disposition order directing that M.G., a child, pay restitution "for and on behalf of the victim." Unfortunately, the amount of that restitution was not included in the order. This determination cannot be delegated to a probation officer. Shipley v. State, 528 So.2d 902 (Fla. 1988). In point of fact, the order does not purport to delegate this responsibility; rather, the amount of restitution appears to have been inadvertently omitted from the order.

REVERSED AND REMANDED FOR FURTHER PROCEEDINGS CONSISTENT HEREWITH.

COBB, COWART and GOSHORN, JJ., concur.
