WALTER J. GRIFFIN, PETITIONER,
v.
FLORIDA PAROLE COMMISSION, RESPONDENT

Fla. 1st DCA | 1999-03-03
No. 99-261
WOLF, KAHN and PADOVANO, JJ., concur.
727 So. 2d 1092 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1999) Positive Treatment
Cited by 16 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

This petition for writ of habeas corpus seeks belated appeal of an order of the circuit court which dismissed a petition for writ of mandamus. Because the proceeding below was not a criminal case, habeas corpus relief pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.140(j) is not available. However, we acknowledge petitioner’s claim that he did not receive a copy of the circuit court’s order until after the time for initiating an appeal had expired. Accordingly, the petition for writ of habeas corpus is denied without prejudice to petitioner’s right to seek relief in the trial court by motion pursuant to Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.540, requesting that the original order be set aside and that a new order be entered, such that the right to seek review may be preserved. See Brown v. State, 708 So. 2d 1041 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998); Snelson v. Snelson, 440 So. 2d 477 (Fla. 5th DCA 1983).

PETITION DENIED.

WOLF, KAHN and PADOVANO, JJ., concur.
