Akel v. State
Akel v. State
737 So. 2d 633; 1999 Fla. App. LEXIS 10044; 1999 WL 546985
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Akel v. State
Opinion of the Court
The appellant challenges the trial court’s denial of his postconviction motion filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. Because the appellant’s direct appeal was pending at the time the motion was filed and, in fact, is still pending in this court, the trial court was without jurisdiction to consider the motion. We therefore vacate the trial court order.
