Opinion

No. SC14–57.

Lonnie WALKER, Petitioner(s) v. STATE of Florida, Respondent(s).


The petitioner has filed a petition for writ of mandamus with the Court. To the extent the petitioner seeks a writ of mandamus, the petition is denied for failure to show a clear legal right to the relief sought. See Huffman v. State, 813 So.2d 10, 11 (Fla.2000). To the extent the petitioner seeks additional relief, the petition is denied as procedurally barred. A petition for extraordinary relief is not a second appeal and cannot be used to litigate or relitigate issues that were or could have been raised on direct appeal or in prior postconviction proceedings. See Denson v. State, 775 So.2d 288, 290 (Fla.2000); Breedlove v. Singletary, 595 So.2d 8, 10 (Fla.1992). LABARGA, C.J., and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, and CANADY, JJ., concur.
