Appellant, Justin Demartre Young, appeals his conviction for two counts of attempted first-degree premeditated murder with a weapon, raising several issues. We affirm the convictions without further comment. However, we agree with Appellant that the trial court erred by imposing $1,845 in costs for transportation, to be paid to the Escambia County Sheriffs Office, because the State did not present any evidence of the costs actually incurred and Appellant did not affirmatively agree to pay the requested amount of $1,845. See § 938.27(7), Fla. Stat. (2019) (providing that investigative costs include “actual expenses incurred in conducting the investigation and prosecution of the criminal case”); Mills v. State, 177 So. 3d 984, 988 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015) (explaining that assessing a sheriffs investigative cost is discretionary and, thus, cannot be imposed without notice or hearing); Icon v. State, 322 So. 3d 117, 119 (Fla. 4th DCA 2021) (finding that the trial court erred in imposing an investigative cost of $50 because the defendant did not agree to pay it and it was not supported by competent, substantial evidence and instructing that the trial court on remand may reimpose the cost either upon the defendants agreement to pay it or upon the requesting partys submission of competent, substantial evidence to support it); Terry v. State, 791 So. 2d 1162, 1163 (Fla. 1st DCA 2001) (reversing the cost of investigation and prosecution because the State failed to provide documentation of the requested amount). Accordingly, we reverse the $1,845 cost of transportation and remand for the trial court to either strike the cost and enter a corrected judgment and sentence or reimpose the cost upon the States submission of competent, substantial evidence to support it or Appellants affirmative agreement to pay it.
Affirmed in part, Reversed in part, and Remanded with directions.
