Delmart E.J.M. VREELAND, II, Appellant,v.STATE of Florida, Appellee.
An appeal from an order of the Leon County Circuit Court, James C. Hankinson, Judge.Delmart E.J.M. Vreeland, II, pro se, Appellant.Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Jay Kubica, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
The order of the circuit court denying appellant's motion seeking the appointment of counsel for postconviction purposes is not among the class of orders appealable by a defendant pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.140(b)(1). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. This disposition is without prejudice, however, to appellant's right to file a proper petition for writ of mandamus seeking to compel a ruling by the circuit court on appellant's pending motion(s) requesting that he be granted relief from his conviction.
BENTON, C.J., VAN NORTWICK and SWANSON, JJ., concur.
