An appeal from an order of the Department of Corrections.

James Major, pro se.

Perri King Dale, Assistant General Counsel, Department of Corrections, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Because appellant failed to show that he had been injured by application of the rule he sought to amend, he lacked standing to seek its amendment pursuant to section 120.54(5), Florida Statutes (1995). See Florida Dep't of Offender Rehab. v. Jerry, 353 So.2d 1230 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978). Accordingly, the order denying his petition to amend is

AFFIRMED.
