    Lewis James TUCKER, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 87-03040.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    May 4, 1990.
    James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Robert D. Rosen, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Davis G. Anderson, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.
   CAMPBELL, Chief Judge.

Appellant, Lewis James Tucker, appeals his judgment and sentence resulting from his conviction for the offense of battery. We find no error in his conviction and, therefore, affirm his conviction and sentence, with the exception of costs imposed.

We do find, however, that the trial judge erred in imposing costs without affording appellant his due process rights of notice and an opportunity to be heard in regard to the imposition of those costs. Mays v. State, 519 So.2d 618 (Fla.1988); Jenkins v. State, 444 So.2d 947 (Fla.1984). We decline to readdress and certify this due process issue to the Florida Supreme Court for reconsideration in light of recent federal decisions on this question. See United States v. Cooper, 870 F.2d 586 (11th Cir.1989); United States v. Rivera-Velez, 839 F.2d 8 (1st Cir.1988); United States v. Pagan, 785 F.2d 378 (2d Cir.), cert. denied, 479 U.S. 1017, 107 S.Ct. 667, 93 L.Ed.2d 719 (1986). We find the Florida Supreme Court’s decision in Jenkins and its progeny to be unequivocal and not the proper subject of a renewed certification from this court.

We, therefore, strike the imposition of costs and remand to the trial court, which may reimpose costs if the appropriate notice and opportunity to be heard is afforded appellant.

RYDER and PATTERSON, JJ., concur.
