JOHNNY L. JONES, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1994-04-19
No. 93-2885
BOOTH, WOLF and WEBSTER, JJ., concur.
635 So. 2d 989 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1994) Positive Treatment
Cited by 12 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant, an inmate in the state correctional system, seeks review of an order denying a motion filed pursuant to rule 3.800(a), Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure. The record reflects that the order denying the motion was entered on July 16, 1993; that, on July 28, 1993, appellant mailed a motion for rehearing, which was filed on August 2, 1993; that the motion for rehearing was denied by an order entered on August 23,1993; and that, on August 31, 1993, appellant mailed a notice of appeal, which was filed on September 3, 1993. Rule 3.800 does not authorize a motion for rehearing. Therefore, appellant’s motion for rehearing did not postpone rendition of the order sought to be appealed. Accordingly, because the order sought to be appealed was rendered on July 16, 1993, and appellant did not mail his notice of appeal until August 31, 1993, the appeal is untimely and must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. See, e.g., Ketion v. State, 599 So. 2d 282 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992); Griffis v. State 593 So. 2d 308 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992).

APPEAL DISMISSED.

BOOTH, WOLF and WEBSTER, JJ., concur.

    …notice of appeal was not tolled. Further, the trial court’s erroneous recital that the defendant had “thirty (30) days from the date of [the order denying rehearing] to appeal” did not toll the time for filing a notice of appeal. See Jones v. State, 635 So. 2d 989 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994). Therefore, this appeal is untimely and must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. APPEAL DISMISSED.
