LINDSAY v. EDWARDS (2020)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

David J. LINDSAY, Appellant, v. Warden EDWARDS and Florida Department of Corrections, Appellees.

No. 1D19-3409

Decided: February 18, 2020

David J Lindsay, pro se, Appellant. Kenneth S. Steely, General Counsel, and Daniel R. Burke, Assistant General Counsel, Florida Department of Corrections, Tallahassee, for Appellees.

We grant the appellees' motion to dismiss filed December 17, 2019. The Florida Department of Corrections released the appellant from its custody on October 18, 2019, upon the expiration of the appellant's sentence. There was no ensuing supervision. The appellant in this case challenges the transfer of his habeas petition to the jurisdiction from which his conviction and sentence originated. We dismiss the appeal as moot. Given the dismissal, we deny as moot the appellees' December 2, 2019, motion for extension of time to file an answer brief.

Per Curiam.

Wolf, Rowe, and Tanenbaum, JJ., concur.
