MANSELL v. STATE (2020)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

Theophilus Savalas MANSELL, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

Case No. 5D19-2816

Decided: April 17, 2020

Theophilus Savalas Mansell, Cocoa, pro se. James S. Purdy, Public Defender, and Matthew Funderburk, Assistant Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Nora Hutchinson Hall, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

We affirm Theophilus Savalas Mansell's judgment and sentence. However, we remand for the trial court to strike the $3 cost assessed pursuant to section 318.18(11)(b), Florida Statutes (2019), as Mansell was not charged with a traffic infraction. See Sorenson v. State, 291 So.3d 630 (Fla. 5th DCA Feb. 21, 2020).

AFFIRMED; REMANDED WITH INSTRUCTIONS.

PER CURIAM.

LAMBERT, SASSO and TRAVER, JJ., concur.
