GREESON v. STATE (2020)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Frank GREESON, Petitioner, v. STATE of Florida, Respondent.

No. 1D19-4541

Decided: July 13, 2020

Frank Greeson, pro se, Petitioner. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent.

Dismissed. See generally Baker v. State, 878 So. 2d 1236 (Fla. 2004) (dismissing habeas corpus petition as unauthorized and explaining that such a petition may not seek postconviction relief based on a claim that could have been or was raised at trial or in a direct appeal, or that would be untimely or successive if it were asserted through a rule 3.850 motion).

The Court warns the appellant that any of his future filings that it determines to be frivolous may result in the imposition of sanctions, including a prohibition against any further pro se filings in this Court and a referral to the appropriate institution for disciplinary procedures. See § 944.279, Fla. Stat. (2019) (providing that “[a] prisoner who is found by a court to have brought a frivolous or malicious suit, action, claim, proceeding, or appeal ․ is subject to disciplinary procedures pursuant to the rules of the Department of Corrections”).

Per Curiam.

Rowe, Makar, and Tanenbaum, JJ., concur.
