Kenneth Jerome JENKINS, Petitioner(s) v. Kenneth S. TUCKER, etc., Respondent(s).
The petitioner has filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus with the Court. To the extent the petitioner seeks the kind of relief that should have been brought in a motion under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850, the petition is dismissed as unauthorized. See Baker v. State, 878 So.2d 1236 (Fla.2004). To the extent the petitioner seeks relief on a claim of ineffective assistance of appellate counsel on direct appeal, the petition is dismissed without prejudice to the petitioner seeking relief in the district court.
