IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA DAVID JUDE MOORE, JR., Appellant, v. NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED CASE NO. 1D14-0790 STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. _____________________________/ Opinion filed December 22, 2014. An appeal from the Circuit Court for Escambia County. Terry D. Terrell, Judge. Nancy A. Daniels, Public Defender, and A. Victoria Wiggins, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant. Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. We affirm appellant’s convictions without further comment. We write, however, to reverse and remand that portion of the sentence imposing a public defender fee and application fee because the record does not indicate that the trial court informed appellant of his right to contest the amount of those fees. Vaughn v. State, 65 So. 3d 138, 139 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011). We also reverse and remand the trial court’s imposition of a lump sum of $870 for court costs. Costs must be specifically delineated with reference to the statutory authority for each cost imposed. Oliver v. State, 75 So. 3d 349, 350 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011); Smiley v. State, 704 So. 2d 191, 194-95 (Fla. 1st DCA 1997). Accordingly, we AFFIRM appellant’s conviction; AFFIRM the sentence in part; REVERSE the sentence in part; and REMAND for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
