Benjamin Christopher Walker v. State of Florida

Summary

The Fifth District Court of Appeal of Florida affirmed Benjamin Christopher Walker’s convictions and sentence for trafficking in methamphetamine, possession of ammunition by a convicted felon, and possession of drug paraphernalia. The court remanded for correction of a scrivener’s error in the cost order, requiring the public defender application fee to be reduced from $100 to $50.

Holdings

1. The record disclosed no reversible error, so the judgment and sentence were affirmed in all respects other than the cost-order correction.
2. The cost order had to be amended to remove the erroneous $100 public defender application fee and replace it with the properly ordered $50 fee.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the Anders appeal disclosed any reversible error in Walker's judgment and sentence.
2. Whether the cost order should be corrected to remove the $100 public defender application fee and replace it with the properly ordered $50 fee.
