WRIGHT v. DUGGER, 517 So.2d 40 (Fla.App. 4 Dist. 1987)

HUEY LEE WRIGHT, PETITIONER, v. RICHARD L. DUGGER, SECRETARY OF THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, RESPONDENT.

No. 87-2505.District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
November 25, 1987. Rehearing Denied January 20, 1988.

Petition for writ of habeas corpus.

Huey Lee Wright, pro se.

Robert A. Butterworth, Jr., Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Diane E. Leeds, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for respondent.

PER CURIAM.

We grant petitioner’s request for belated appeal and treat the petition as one for review of denial of a motion for relief under rule 3.850, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure. However, the motion having been filed in the trial court after January 1, 1987, complaining of a sentence imposed in 1982, comes too late under rule 3.850. We therefore affirm.

AFFIRMED.

HERSEY, C.J., and LETTS and WALDEN, JJ., concur.
