CASE NO.: 2D16–4293
11-22-2016
John Michael HILL, Appellant/Petitioner(s), v. STATE of Florida, Appellee/Respondent(s).
BY ORDER OF THE COURT:
Appellant seeks review of the trial court's order entered on July 26, 2016, denying his motion for leave to file a motion for postconviction relief that exceeds page limits, and the order entered on August 29, 2016, that denied his motion for rehearing of the July 26, 2016, order.
Although the July 26, 2016, order stated that it was a final order subject to appeal within thirty days, that order and the subsequent order denying rehearing are nonappealable, nonfinal orders. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction without prejudice to appellant seeking review of the July 26, 2016, order on timely appeal from an order, if any, that denies his motion for postconviction relief, if he does file such a motion in the lower tribunal. In light of this disposition, appellant's "sworn motion to convert case type and for an extension of time to file necessary brief is denied.
