Opinion of the Court

ADKINS, Justice.

We have for review a decision of the District Court of Appeal, Fourth District, Potts v. Wainwright, 413 So.2d 156 (Fla. 4th DCA 1982), on the issue of petitioner’s right to a belated appeal. This issue was determined in State v. Meyer, 430 So.2d 440 (Fla. 1983).

Accordingly, we approve the result of the decision of the district court of appeal.

It is so ordered.

ALDERMAN, C.J., and BOYD, OVER-TON, MCDONALD, EHRLICH and SHAW, JJ., concur.
