R.F. v. Department of Children & Families

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Because the notice of appeal was not filed within 30 days of rendition of the final order terminating parental rights, this appeal is hereby dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. This disposition is without prejudice to appellants’ right to file a petition for writ of habeas corpus in the circuit court to obtain belated appeal. In the Interest of E.H., 609 So.2d 1289 (Fla. 1992).

APPEAL DISMISSED.

BARFIELD, VAN NORTWICK and POLSTON, JJ., concur.
