Case No. SC02-1234.Supreme Court of Florida.
March 30, 2004.
Lower Tribunal No. 5D01-2456.
Camaroto filed an “Emergency Petition for Writ of Mandamus, or in the Alternative, a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus.” To the extent that Camaroto seeks mandamus relief, the petition is denied on the merits because Camaroto has failed to show a clear entitlement to relief. See Huffman v. State, 813 So.2d 10, 11 (Fla. 2000) (holding that in order to be entitled to a writ of mandamus, the petitioner must show that he has a clear legal right to the requested relief, the respondent has an indisputable legal duty to perform the requested action, and no other adequate remedy is available). To the extent that Camaroto seeks habeas relief, the petition is denied. Mills v. Dugger, 574 So.2d 63, 65 (Fla. 1990) (“[H]abeas corpus is not to be used for obtaining additional appeals of issues which were raised, or should have been raised, on direct appeal or which were waived at trial or which could have, should have, or have been, raised in prior postconviction filings.”). The remaining pending motions are hereby denied.
