Qaadir Saintloit, pro se, Petitioner. No appearance for Respondent.
Petition for Writ of Mandamus—Original Jurisdiction.
Qaadir Saintloit, pro se, Petitioner. No appearance for Respondent.
PER CURIAM.
The petition for writ of mandamus is denied on the merits. See Thomas v. State, Dept. of Revenue, 74 So.3d 145 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011) (stating that absent a showing that an express and distinct demand for performance was made, mandamus will not lie to compel a court to rule on a pleading in a civil matter); accord Al–Hakim v. State, 783 So.2d 293 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001).
