Stokes v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the trial court’s denial of appellant’s 3.850 motion. With respect to that portion of appellant’s motion wherein he purports to attack the effectiveness of his appellate counsel, we would point out that the proper method of raising such issue is via a habeas corpus petition filed *331directly with the appellate court. Knight v. State, 394 So.2d 997 (Fla. 1981).

SMITH, C.J., and MILLS and NIMMONS, JJ., concur.
