Borrego v. State
Borrego v. State
80 So. 3d 411; 2012 WL 414004; 2012 Fla. App. LEXIS 1905
(Southern Reporter, Third Series)
Borrego v. State
Opinion of the Court
Pedro Borrego, Jr., appeals the summary denial of his motion for postconviction relief filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. Because the postconviction court correctly determined that his motion was untimely, we affirm. See Barrios-Cruz v. State, 63 So.3d 868, 873 (Fla. 2d DCA 2011). As in Barrios-Cruz, we hold that Padilla v. Kentucky, - U.S. -, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), does not apply retroactively in postconviction proceedings, and we certify to the Florida Supreme Court the following question of great public importance pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.030(a)(2)(A)(v):
SHOULD THE RULING IN Padilla v. Kentucky, - U.S. -, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), BE APPLIED RETROACTIVELY IN POSTCONVICTION PROCEEDINGS?
Affirmed; question certified.
