Dickerson v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District
Jul 29, 1987
509 So. 2d 1390 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1987)

Opinion

No. BR-476.

July 29, 1987.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Alachua County; Theron A. Yawn, Judge.

Donnie Dickerson, pro se.

No appearance for appellee.


We affirm the trial court's holding that it had no jurisdiction to consider appellant's motion for post-conviction relief, since the motion was filed during the pendency of appellant's direct appeal in this Court. Carrin v. State, 459 So.2d 430 (Fla. 1st DCA 1984); Harpham v. State, 415 So.2d 863 (Fla. 5th DCA 1982); cf. Bryan v. State, 470 So.2d 864 (Fla. 2d DCA 1985). However, our affirmance is without prejudice to appellant's presenting the issues raised in a proper Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.850 motion.

We note that appellant's notice of appeal appears to be untimely filed. However, the trial court failed to include in its order "`a statement that the movant ha[d] the right to appeal within 30 days of the rendition of the order,'" as required by Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.850. Williams v. State, 454 So.2d 756, 757, n. 1 (Fla. 1st DCA 1984). Therefore, the appeal is correctly treated as one timely filed. Id.

JOANOS and ZEHMER, JJ., concur.
