ARNOLD ANCRUM, APPELLANT,
v.
WALTER A. MCNEIL, SECRETARY, FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 2009-06-09
No. 1D08-5485
WOLF, WEBSTER, and CLARK, JJ., concur.
15 So. 3d 619 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (2009) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

By timely petition for writ of certiorari, Arnold Ancrum seeks review of the denial of his petition for writ of mandamus, in which he sought an order directing that he be transferred to a correctional institution closer to his family. In accordance with Oscar v. Florida Department of Corrections, 973 So.2d 596 (Fla. 1st DCA 2008), we treat this proceeding as an appeal of a final order. On the merits, the circuit court correctly determined that Ancrum does not have a clear legal right to a transfer to any particular correctional institution, and that mandamus will therefore not lie to compel that result.

AFFIRMED.

WOLF, WEBSTER, and CLARK, JJ., concur.
