EDITH SHADWICK POPE, APPELLANT, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE.

PER CURIAM.

The appellant, Edith Shadwick Pope, challenges the trial court's determination that she make restitution payments totaling $1,330.28. We find no merit in her contention that the state did not present sufficient competent evidence to establish the amount of restitution. We agree, however, that the court erred by not allowing the appellant to testify at the restitution hearing with regard to her ability to pay restitution. See § 775.089(6), Fla. Stat. (1987). We, accordingly, reverse and remand for another restitution hearing.

We also strike the court costs and attorney's fees without prejudice to the state to seek reimposition after proper notice and opportunity to be heard.

Reversed and remanded.

SCHOONOVER, C.J., and RYDER and DANAHY, JJ., concur.
