Martinez v. Leinster

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District
Nov 1, 1990
568 So. 2d 1013 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1990)

Opinion

No. 90-573.

November 1, 1990.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County; Frederick T. Pfeiffer, Judge.

Franklin Martinez, Starke, pro se.

No appearance for appellee.


The plaintiff-appellant seeks review of a non-final order refusing to require his transportation at state expense from prison and abating his civil case against his former attorney until he is released and is able to appear at trial on his own. We treat this unauthorized appeal, see Fla.R. App.P. 9.130, as an application for certiorari and, upon the conclusion that the trial court did not abuse its discretion, deny that relief. See Price v. Johnston, 334 U.S. 266, 68 S.Ct. 1049, 92 L.Ed. 1356 (1948); Stone v. Morris, 546 F.2d 730 (7th Cir. 1976); Kirk v. United States, 589 F. Supp. 808 (E.D.Va. 1984).

CERTIORARI DENIED.

COBB and COWART, JJ., concur.
