Opinion
Case No. SC03-2020.
December 16, 2003.
Petitioner submitted pleadings, which he styled as motions, that this Court has treated as a petition for writ of mandamus and supplement thereto. The petition and supplement thereto are hereby transferred, pursuant to Harvard v. Singletary, 733 So.2d 1020 (Fla. 1999), to the Circuit Court of the First Judicial Circuit in and for Santa Rosa County, Florida. The transfer of this case should not be construed as an adjudication or comment on the merits of the petition, nor as a determination that the transferee court has jurisdiction or that the initiating pleading has been properly denominated as a petition for writ of mandamus. The transferee court should not interpret the transfer of this case as an indication that it must or should reach the merits of the petition. The transferee court shall treat the petition as if it had been originally filed there on the date it was filed in this Court. Any determination concerning whether a filing fee shall be applicable to this petition shall be made by the transferee court.
