Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Jennifer J. Moore, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. Appellant correctly asserts, and the state properly concedes, the trial court erred in ordering restitution based upon hearsay evidence that was improperly admitted at the restitution hearing over appellant s objection.
