Synopsis

David Frazier petitioned for writs of prohibition or certiorari to challenge a lower court order. The First District Court of Appeal summarily dismissed the petition, finding that neither extraordinary remedy was appropriate under applicable Florida law.


Holding

The petition is dismissed. Prohibition is unavailable because there is no showing that the lower court lacked jurisdiction or attempted to act in excess of jurisdiction. Certiorari is unavailable because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that any material injury could not be remedied on appeal.
