I.H., a Child, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 94-01398.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    June 28, 1995.
    James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and John T. Kilcrease, Jr., Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Robert J. Krauss, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.
   THREADGILL, Judge.

I.H., a juvenile, appeals his adjudication of delinquency of DUI manslaughter and commitment to HRS. We affirm the adjudication and disposition, but strike that portion of the commitment order that directs the child to be deported upon completion of his supervision. While the trial court was permitted to recommend deportation to the federal authorities, it did not have authority to order the deportation. Torros v. State, 415 So.2d 908 (Fla. 2d DCA 1982).

Affirmed; order of deportation stricken.

DANAHY, A.C.J., and QUINCE, J., concur.
