979 So. 2d 1121 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2008)

Opinion

No. 3D08-440.

April 9, 2008.

An Appeal under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.141(b)(2) from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Bertila Soto, Judge.

Joseph Luckner, in proper person.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, for appellee.

Before GERSTEN, C.J., and COPE and LAGOA, JJ.


This is an appeal of an order denying a motion for DNA testing under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.853. The trial court erred, in part, by denying the motion for lack of an oath because the motion is, in fact, sworn. We agree with the trial court, however, that the motion is facially insufficient regarding Rule 3.853(b)(3) and (4). Appellant may replead in the trial court if he has a good-faith basis to do so.

Affirmed.
