1Per curiam
In these two cases, we grant the petitions for writ of certiorari and quash the orders appointing the public defender’s office to represent the two defendants. The record reflects that the defendants are not indigent within the meaning of the law. See § 27.51(2), Fla. Stat. (2011); Haughwout v. Mellor, 870 So.2d 895 (Fla. 4th DCA 2004).
MAY, C.J., GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
