Green v. State

Supreme Court of Florida
Sep 7, 2005
912 So. 2d 317 (Fla. 2005)

Opinion

Case No. SC05-678.

September 7, 2005.


To the extent that petitioner seeks to have his appeal reinstated in the DCA, the petition is denied because petitioner has not shown that he has a clear legal right to the relief requested. See Huffman v. State, 813 So. 2d 10, 11 (Fla. 2000) (stating that in order to be entitled to a writ of mandamus, the petitioner must show that he has a clear legal right to the relief, the DCA has an indisputable duty to perform the requested action, and no other remedy is available). To the extent that petitioner seeks the appointment of a special prosecutor and compensation for damages, the petition is hereby dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

WELLS, ANSTEAD, LEWIS, CANTERO and BELL, JJ., concur.
