Genovese v. Tucker
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 19, 2012 · Marstiller, Padovano, Swanson
103 So. 3d 255; 2012 WL 6603062; 2012 Fla. App. LEXIS 21659 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Genovese v. Tucker

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

As the petitioner’s county of incarceration was Bradford and not Union county, the lower tribunal lacked territorial jurisdiction over the petitioner’s habeas corpus petition. See Johnson v. Fla. Parole Comm’n, 841 So.2d 615 (Fla. 1st DCA 2003). The petition for writ of certiorari is thus GRANTED. The lower tribunal’s order of July 12, 2012, is hereby QUASHED, and this matter is REMANDED to the lower tribunal.

PADOVANO, MARSTILLER, and SWANSON, JJ., concur.
