Ted Smith v. State of Florida

Opinion

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA TED SMITH, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND Petitioner, DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED v. CASE NO. 1D15-1719 STATE OF FLORIDA, Respondent. ___________________________/ Opinion filed May 22, 2015.

Petition for Writ of Certiorari -- Original Jurisdiction.

Ted Smith, pro se, Petitioner.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM.

Petitioner seeks review of the Order Dismissing Defendant’s Letter and Affidavit for Modification of Conditional Release. To obtain certiorari review, a petitioner must demonstrate a departure from the essential requirements of law, resulting in an irreparable harm or harm that cannot be remedied on appeal. See West Florida Regional Medical Center, Inc. v. See, 18 So. 3d 676 (Fla. 1st DCA 2009).

Here, the circuit court denied petitioner’s affidavit without prejudice to file a sufficient petition. Petitioner is at liberty to file a sufficient petition alleging grounds upon which his conditional release may be modified as required by section 916.17(2), Florida Statutes. Petitioner fails to demonstrate how this ruling results in irreparable harm.

Accordingly, the petition is denied.

THOMAS, MARSTILLER, and BILBREY, JJ. CONCUR.
