Petition for Belated Appeal, A Case of Original Jurisdiction.

Jorge Porto-Sierra, Crestview, pro se.

No Appearance for Respondent.

PER CURIAM.

The petition for belated appeal is denied on the merits. See Jordan v. State, 549 So.2d 805, 806 (Fla. 1st DCA 1989) (finding that the appellant failed to demonstrate a right to a belated appeal as "[w]e do not believe that access to a law library is necessary to prepare and transmit a simple notice of appeal").

PETITION DENIED.
