Full title: FRANK L. BASS, APPELLANT, v. FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, APPELLEE

Court: District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District

Date published: Jun 28, 1991

581 So. 2d 997 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1991)

Opinion

No. 90-2134.

June 28, 1991.

An appeal from an order of the Division of Administrative Hearings.

Frank L. Bass, pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Ann Cocheu, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, for appellee.

SHIVERS, Chief Judge.

Bass is an inmate in Florida State Prison. He filed a `petition for administrative determination' challenging Department of Correction rules which restrict a prisoner's access to legal materials when the prisoner is in disciplinary confinement. Bass' petition and the Director of Administrative Hearing's order denying it are identical to the petition and order in Ramadanovic v. Department of Corrections, 575 So.2d 1333 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991). As in Ramadanovic, therefore, we reverse and remand with directions to enter an order stating with specificity grounds warranting dismissal or conduct a hearing.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

BOOTH and ALLEN, JJ., concur.
