SPEED v. STATE (2019)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

Offeyette SPEED, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Case No. 5D18-621

Decided: January 18, 2019

James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Nancy Ryan, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Ashley B. Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Lori N. Hagan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

We reverse the imposition of investigative costs for the Seminole County Sheriff's Office in the amount of $156.76 and for the Sanford Police Department in the amount of $250.00, and the cost of prosecution in excess of $100.00 because there was no competent, substantial evidence to support those amounts. See § 938.27(7)–(8), Fla. Stat. (2016). We therefore remand to give the State an opportunity to produce the appropriate documentation. Munoz v. State, 884 So.2d 1070 (Fla. 5th DCA 2004); see also Phillips v. State, 942 So.2d 1042 (Fla. 2d DCA 2006).

We otherwise affirm.

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED.

PER CURIAM.

EVANDER, C.J., WALLIS and EISNAUGLE, JJ., concur.
