Dennis v. Brummer

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District
Dec 17, 1985
479 So. 2d 857 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1985)

Opinion

No. 85-2110.

December 17, 1985.

Case of Original Jurisdiction — Mandamus.

Carl Deon Dennis, in pro. per.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Elliot H. Scherker, Asst. Public Defender, for respondents.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HUBBART and BASKIN, JJ.


REVISED OPINION


Petitioner Dennis seeks production by the public defender of documents and transcripts relating to the circuit court proceedings in his case. This court issued a rule to show cause why the relief sought should not be granted, and the public defender asserted the attorney-client privilege. See § 90.502(1)(c), Fla. Stat. (1983); Fla.Bar Code Prof.Resp. D.R. 4-101(B). It therefore appears to the court that no impediment exists to the granting of the relief sought. Accordingly, we grant the petition, issue the writ of mandamus, and direct respondents to furnish petitioner with any requested documents in their possession.

Writ issued.
