GANDY v. STATE (2024)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

Jessie A. GANDY, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Case No. 5D2023-3132

Decided: May 24, 2024

Matthew J. Metz, Public Defender, and Teresa D. Sutton, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Stephen R. Putnam, Jr., Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

We affirm Appellant's judgment and sentence, but we remand for a corrected costs judgment striking the $50 cost of investigation because it was not part of the plea agreement, requested by the State, or orally pronounced. See Giddens v. State, 338 So. 3d 424, 424 (Fla. 5th DCA 2022).

Affirmed and Remanded with instructions.

Per Curiam.

Makar, Kilbane, and Pratt, JJ., concur.
