Joe YOUNG, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 92-2884.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    May 5, 1993.
    Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Paul E. Petillo, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Joseph A. Tringali, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

We remand this case to the trial court for the correction of two errors, both of which are conceded by the state. It was error to sua sponte assess a public defender fee against appellant where no motion had been filed by the public defender. See In the interest of R.B., 582 So.2d 163, 164 (Fla. 4th DCA1991). It was also error to order appellant to pay $50.00 in court costs where the statute establishes the amount as $20.00. See § 960.20, Fla.Stat. (1991).

AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART; REMANDED.

ANSTEAD, HERSEY and WARNER, JJ., concur.
