CAZU SOLOMAN, APPELLANT,
v.
THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 3d DCA | 2005-07-06
No. 3D03-1782
Before COPE and GREEN, JJ., and SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.
906 So. 2d 330 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (2005)

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Cazu Soloman was convicted and sentenced for first degree murder after a jury trial. On appeal, he raises three issues; we, however, address only one. For various reasons, Soloman claims that his trial counsel was ineffective. This claim is not cognizable on direct appeal because Solo-man’s right to relief is not apparent on the face of the record before us.1 See Mizell v. State, 716 So. 2d 829, 830 (Fla. 3d DCA 1998); Caison v. State, 695 So. 2d 872 (Fla. 3d DCA 1997).

Finding no merit to the remaining issues raised on this appeal, we affirm.

. Our affirmance in this regard, however, is without prejudice to Soloman raising these claims in any appropriate post-conviction motion. See Burgess v. State, 884 So. 2d 453 (Fla. 3d DCA 2004).
