Upon consideration, the pro se Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus is treated as a petition for writ of mandamus, and it is ordered that said petition is hereby dismissed. See LaFerte-Diaz v. Dep't of Corr., 187 So. 3d 908 (Fla. 3d DCA 2016) (holding that the inmate was first required to utilize the inmate grievance system before filing a petition for writ of mandamus); Dunbar v. State, 225 So. 3d 971, 972 (Fla. 3d DCA 2017) (“As an inmate in the custody of the [Department of Corrections], Dunbar must fully exhaust his administrative remedies regarding gain time or credit owed within the [Department of Corrections] before he is entitled to pursue judicial remedies.”).
HENDON, GORDO and BOKOR, JJ., concur.
