Jones v. Harris
Jones v. Harris
Opinion of the Court
Petitioner’s argument that the circuit court erred in denying his petition for writ of mandamus is without merit and is rejected; however, because the underlying action constitutes a “collateral criminal proceeding” pursuant to section 57.085(10), Florida Statutes (2005), the circuit court improperly imposed a lien upon petitioner’s inmate trust account for payment of court costs and fees. See Cox v. Crosby, 31 Fla. L. Weekly D310, — So.2d-, 2006 WL 176681 (Fla. 1st DCA Jan. 26, 2006), rev. granted sub nom. McDonough v. Cox, 924 So.2d 809 (Fla. 2006); Schmidt v. Crusoe, 878 So.2d 361 (Fla. 2003). We accordingly quash that portion of the circuit court’s order on indigency imposing a lien as a result of the filing of the petition for writ of certiorari/mandamus below.
DENIED.
