Opinion filed August 29, 2014.

Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the

Circuit Court for Hillsborough County;

William P. Levens, Judge.

Eilam Isaak, Tampa, for Petitioner.

Stephen D. Hurm, General Counsel, and

Judson M. Chapman, Senior Assistant

General Counsel, Department of

Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles,

Pinellas Park, for Respondent.

NORTHCUTT, Judge.

Kyle Hosey suffered a six-month suspension of his driver's license, which he unsuccessfully challenged in an administrative hearing. On appeal, the circuit court reversed the suspension. Hosey now seeks a writ of certiorari to quash the portion of the circuit court's decision that remanded for additional administrative proceedings. As explained in Forth v. Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles, 39 Fla. L. Weekly D1352 (Fla. 2d DCA June 27, 2014), the validity of the suspension has been rendered moot by the expiration of the six-month term. See McLaughlin v. Dep't of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles, 128 So. 3d 815 (Fla. 2d DCA 2012).

Petition granted.
