Donald E. Sargent, Cross City, pro se.

Bill McCollum, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Kellie A. Nielan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM.

Donald Sargent has filed a petition in this court seeking a writ of habeas corpus requesting a belated appeal. We deny the petition without prejudice to refile a legally sufficient petition. The instant petition, although executed with proper legal formality, fails to allege that Sargent requested his attorney to file an appeal on his behalf in a timely manner. If he failed to make a timely request for an appeal,^[1] he is not entitled to receive a belated appeal.

Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus DENIED without prejudice.

PALMER, C.J., SAWAYA and TORPY, JJ., concur.
