Patrick WACTOR, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
Affirmed. The trial court correctly denied appellant's petition for writ of habeas corpus, as it was in actuality an untimely motion for postconviction relief from his conviction and sentence, which were final in 1996. It is also without merit. See Howell v. State, 45 So.3d 527 (Fla. 1st DCA 2010); Early v. State, 678 So.2d 901 (Fla. 5th DCA 1996).
PER CURIAM.
WARNER, POLEN and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
