NIMMONS, Judge.
The trial court erred by imposing court costs and attorney’s fees without determining the defendant’s ability to pay. Jenkins v. State, 444 So.2d 947 (Fla.1984); Lawton v. State, 492 So.2d 404 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986); Walker v. State, 458 So.2d 396 (Fla. 1st DCA 1984). Accordingly, the imposition of such costs and fees is reversed and the case remanded for a new hearing upon proper notice to determine the appellant’s ability to pay.
SMITH, C.J., and BOOTH, J., concur.
