Douglas v. State
180 So. 3d 231; 2015 Fla. App. LEXIS 18794; 2015 WL 9241969
(Southern Reporter, Third Series)
Douglas v. State
Opinion of the Court
This petition for writ of mandamus seeks to compel a ruling on a motion for postconviction relief. The circuit court has recently issued an order which granted an evidentiary hearing on the pending motion. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. Munn. v. Fla. Parole Comm’n, 807 So.2d 733 (Fla. 1st DCA 2002) (holding that where the trial court has recently taken action, mandamus relief was not warranted). However, we encourage the circuit court to continue its efforts to expeditiously dispose of the motion pending below. See Wilson v. State, 775 So.2d 1003 (Fla. 1st DCA 2001).
