JONES v. DEPT OF CORRECTIONS (2020)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Gerrard JONES, Appellant, v. Fl. DEPT. OF CORRECTIONS, Appellee.

No. 1D20-1692

Decided: September 21, 2020

Gerrard Jones, pro se, Appellant. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, and Gecelyne S. Dixon, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

Upon consideration of Appellant's response to the Court's order of June 2, 2020, the Court has determined that the notice of appeal was not timely filed. Because this is a civil matter, Appellant's request that the Court grant him a belated appeal is denied. See Powell v. Florida Dept. of Corrections, 727 So. 2d 1103 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.

Per Curiam.

Roberts, Osterhaus, and Jay, JJ., concur.
