Sampson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 9, 2001 · Blue, Fulmer, Patterson
794 So. 2d 611; 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 1166; 2001 WL 109193 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Sampson v. State

Opinion of the Court

PATTERSON, Chief Judge.

Robert Sampson appeals from the dismissal of his motion to reduce sentence pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Pro*612cedure 3.800(c). The trial court dismissed the motion for lack of jurisdiction, and we treat this appeal as a petition for writ of certiorari. See Martin v. State, 754 So.2d 793 (Fla. 2d DCA 2000); Davis v. State, 745 So.2d 499 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999). We deny the petition because Sampson filed his motion to reduce sentence well outside the sixty-day time limit provided for in rule 3.800(c).

BLUE and FULMER, JJ., concur.
