Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the judgment and sentence of the trial court. However, court costs may not be imposed upon an insolvent defendant. Cox v. State, 334 So. 2d 568 (Fla.1976); Brown v. State, 400 So. 2d 510 (Fla.2d DCA 1981). We therefore strike that portion of the order imposing court costs of $1,000. As amended the judgment and sentence are AFFIRMED.

OTT, A. C. J., and RYDER and DANA-HY, JJ., concur.
