Sherri Collins v. State of Florida

Opinion

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA SHERRI COLLINS, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND Petitioner, DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED v. CASE NO. 1D14-1744 STATE OF FLORIDA, Respondent. ___________________________/ Opinion filed September 2, 2014.

Petition for Writ of Mandamus -- Original Jurisdiction.

Sherri Collins, pro se, Petitioner.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Trisha Meggs Pate, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM.

In light of the lower tribunal’s order granting an evidentiary hearing on petitioner’s pending motion for postconviction relief, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus on the authority of Munn v. Florida Parole Commission, 807 So. 2d 733 (Fla. 1st DCA 2002). However, we encourage the circuit court to promptly schedule the evidentiary hearing it has granted and to dispose of the matter pending before it as promptly as circumstances permit.

ROBERTS, MARSTILLER, and SWANSON, JJ., CONCUR.
