Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Petition for writ of habeas corpus is granted to make possible petitioner’s belated appeal. Failure of his previous attorney to file a timely notice of appeal prior to his withdrawal from the representation, though inadvertent, constituted ineffective assistance of counsel. Fla.R.App.P. *839.140(b)(3) and State v. Meyer, 430 So.2d 440 (Fla. 1983).

ANSTEAD, C.J., and LETTS and GLICKSTEIN, JJ., concur.
