Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Melvina Racey Flaherty, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.


LETTS, Judge.

The trial court ordered the defendant to pay $1,000 in restitution without a hearing. We reverse.

At the sentencing hearing, there was no discussion pertaining to restitution. Nevertheless, it was prescribed in the written order.

In recent times, we have thrice held that the trial court must consider a defendant's resources prior to the imposition of restitution. Thomas v. State, 517 So.2d 132
