Lower Tribunal No(s). 76-1841, 76-6796.


Petitioner has submitted a petition to invoke the Court's all writs jurisdiction which this Court has treated as a petition for writ of habeas corpus. The petition is hereby denied as successive. Cf. Jenkins v. Wainwright, 322 So. 2d 477, 478 (Fla. 1975) (declaring that once a petitioner seeks relief in a particular court by means of a petition for extraordinary writ, he has picked his forum and is not entitled to a second or third opportunity for the same relief by the same writ in a different court).

LEWIS, QUINCE, POLSTON, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur.
