JOSEPH LUIS LEVIN Petitioner(s) v. RICKY D. DIXON, ETC. Respondent(s)


Lower Tribunal No(s).: 452013CF000958CFAXYX

Petitioner filed a letter, which this Court has treated as a petition for writ of mandamus. To the extent Petitioner seeks mandamus relief, the petition is hereby denied because Petitioner has failed to show a clear legal right to the relief requested. See Huffman v. State, 813 So.2d 10, 11 (Fla. 2000). To the extent petitioner seeks habeas relief, the petition is hereby denied as procedurally barred as a petition for extraordinary relief is not a second appeal and cannot be used to litigate or relitigate issues that were or could have been raised on direct appeal or in prior postconviction proceedings. See Denson v. State, 775 So.2d 288, 290 (Fla. 2000); Breedlove v. Singletary, 595 So.2d 8, 10 (Fla. 1992) No rehearing will be entertained by this Court.

POLSTON, LAWSON, MUÑIZ, COURIEL, and GROSSHANS, JJ., concur.
