Wilson v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District
May 27, 2005
902 So. 2d 340 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2005)

Opinion

No. 2D04-1203.

May 27, 2005.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Polk County; Susan W. Roberts, Judge.

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Judith Ellis, Assistant Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.

Charles J. Crist, Jr., Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Richard M. Fishkin, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.


Phillip John Wilson appeals his conviction and sentence for possession of Alprazolam. We affirm the judgment and sentence, with one exception. We strike the $1000 fine imposed under section 775.083(1)(c), Florida Statutes (2003), and remand for correction of the written order assessing fines and costs.

The trial court orally pronounced a fine of $100 under section 775.083(1)(c). The trial court also pronounced other fines and costs not at issue on appeal and stated: "The total [is] $951." The written order reflects a fine of $1000 and a total of $1951 in fines and costs.

The written order must comport with the trial court's oral pronouncement. See Mills v. State, 765 So.2d 153, 154 (Fla. 2d DCA 2000). The error was properly preserved by a motion filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(b)(2), which was denied. Accordingly, we remand this cause to the trial court with directions to conform the written order assessing fines and costs to the oral pronouncement.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded.

SALCINES and DAVIS, JJ., Concur.
