In a brief response to the appeal filed Monday, that state Attorney General's Office wrote that the conditions of probation can be served only after someone is released from jail.
"Legally, it is clear that a defendant cannot serve probation while incarcerated," the response said.
The appellate court has given the defense has until noon Tuesday to respond to state, if desired.

In an interview this morning in USA Today, Reichs opens up about why she became involved in the case. She was infuriated by what she considered biased media coverage, especially on some cable channels.

By Anthony Colarossi, Orlando Sentinel - 11:39 a.m. EDT, August 23, 2011
"The State of Florida has taken the position that Ms. Anthony has not served a term of probation," the latest filing says. "However, to reach this conclusion there must be a legal ruling that either wholly ignores the findings of the Department of Corrections or divests the Department of its authority to determine what suffices as a term of probation."
The defense throws blame back at the court, saying, "That the order itself was erroneous was a matter for the lower court to address during the proper judicial timeframe. Any second sentence of probation would most certainly result in 'multiple punishments for the same offense' in violation of Double Jeopardy."

Florida sheriff's office asks court to bill Casey Anthony $293,123

snipped

"Lt. Paul Zambouros of the Orange County Sheriff's Office said the investigative costs of $293,123.77 are based largely on the criminal investigation division's work between July 15, 2008, and December 11, 2008. If other deputies' work were included, "the reimbursement for cost of investigation would certainly be larger," Zambouros said in an internal July 28 memo.

Prosecutors are also seeking reimbursement for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement's investigative expenses of $71,939.56 and the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation's expenses of $10,645.38, according to court records.

Anthony's attorney didn't return calls for a comment."
