JOHN W. STOUTAMIRE, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1998-05-20
No. 97-1075
JOANOS and WOLF, JJ., and SMITH, LARRY G., Senior Judge, concur.
710 So. 2d 744 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1998) Positive Treatment
Cited by 25 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

The trial court correctly denied appellant’s 8.800(a) motion because it did not allege an illegal sentence. Appellant’s motion would have been timely filed under rule 3.850, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, and might have been considered as such by the trial court had the notary’s certificate reflected that he took an oath that substantially complied with Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure 3.987, see Zipperer v. Singletary, 693 So. 2d 122 (Fla. 1st DCA 1997); Hall v. State, 643 So. 2d 635 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994) (on rehearing). Since it does not substantially comply, we must affirm; however, our affir-mance is without prejudice to file a properly sworn rule 3.850 motion before the time expires to do so.

AFFIRMED.

JOANOS and WOLF, JJ., and SMITH, LARRY G., Senior Judge, concur.

Likewise, a trial court cannot decide the issue of attorney’s fees without findings as to one spouse’s ability to pay fees and the other spouse’s need to have fees paid. See [*1025] Schlafke v.

However, before a trial court can make these determinations, it must establish a cut-off date, in accordance with section 61.075(6), for determining whether assets and liabilities should be classified as marital.
