v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1982-08-13
No. AI-366
ROBERT P. SMITH, Jr., C. J„ and LARRY G. SMITH and WENTWORTH, JJ., concur.
417 So. 2d 1162 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1982) Caution
Cited by 10 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

This appeal is dismissed because no direct appeal lies from a judgment and sentence based on a guilty plea, Rule 9.140(b), Fla.R. App.P., and because appellant failed to make a prior motion to withdraw his guilty plea in the court below. Robinson v. State, 373 So. 2d 898 (Fla.1979). This dismissal is, however, without prejudice to appellant’s filing an appropriate motion for post-conviction relief, pursuant to Rule 3.850, Fla.R. Crim.P. See, Graff v. State, 389 So. 2d 333 (Fla. 5th DCA 1980); Counts v. State, 376 So. 2d 59 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1979); Honeycutt v. State, 359 So. 2d 503 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1978).

DISMISSED.

ROBERT P. SMITH, Jr., C. J„ and LARRY G. SMITH and WENTWORTH, JJ., concur.

Massey v. State, 417 So. 2d 1162 (Fla. 1st DCA 1982).
