Opinion of the Court
Jerry McAffee appeals the summary dismissal of his petition for writ of habeas corpus and the denial of his motion for rehearing, alleging three claims of prose-cutorial misconduct. Because McAffee is precluded from raising his claims in a petition for writ of habeas corpus, we affirm the order of the trial court dismissing McAffee’s petition. See White v. Dugger, 511 So.2d 554 (Fla. 1987) (holding that ha-beas corpus is not the proper vehicle to raise issues that should have and could have been raised on direct appeal or in a Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 proceeding). Our affirmance is without prejudice to any right McAffee may have to file a timely, facially sufficient rule 3.850 motion based on newly discovered evidence. See Ford v. State, 912 So.2d 388 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005). Any such motion will not be considered successive.
Affirmed.
