Opinion
No. SC13–774.

Enoch DeJESUS, Petitioner(s) v. Michael D. CREWS, etc., Respondent(s).
Petitioner has filed an “Emergency Petition for Writ of Prohibition and to Exercise All Writs Jurisdiction,” which this Court has treated as a petition for a writ of prohibition. To the extent petitioner seeks a writ of prohibition, the petition is hereby denied because petitioner has failed to demonstrate that a lower court is attempting to act in excess of its jurisdiction. See Mandico v. Taos Constr., Inc., 605 So.2d 850 (Fla.1992); English v. McCrary, 348 So.2d 293 (Fla.1977). To the extent petitioner seeks to invoke the Court's all writs jurisdiction, the petition is hereby dismissed for lack of jurisdiction because petitioner has failed to cite an independent basis that would allow the Court to exercise its all writs authority and no such basis is apparent on the face of the petition. See Williams v. State, 913 So.2d 541, 543–44 (Fla.2005); St. Paul Title Ins. Corp. v. Davis, 392 So.2d 1304, 1305 (Fla.1980). Any motions or other requests for relief are hereby denied.
