James Alexander Logan, Petitioner(s) v. Ricky D. Dixon, etc., Respondent(s)
Lower Tribunal No(s).: 261999CF000144CFAXMX
To the extent Petitioner seeks the type of relief available in a motion filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a), the petition is dismissed because this Court generally will not consider the repetitive petitions of persons who have abused the judicial processes of the lower courts such that they have been barred from filing certain actions there. See Pettway v. State, 776 So.2d 930, 931 (Fla. 2000).
To the extent Petitioner seeks additional relief, the petition is denied as procedurally barred. 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 motion for rehearing or reinstatement will be entertained by this Court.
