DONALD OTIS WILLIAMS v. STATE OF FLORIDA (2017)

Supreme Court of Florida.

DONALD OTIS WILLIAMS Petitioner(s) v. STATE OF FLORIDA Respondent(s)

CASE NO.: SC17-1322

Decided: September 22, 2017

The petition to invoke all writs jurisdiction is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction because the petitioner has failed to cite an independent basis that would allow the Court to exercise its all writs authority and no such basis is apparent on the face of the petition. See Williams v. State, 913 So. 2d 541, 543-44 (Fla. 2005); St. Paul Title Ins. Corp. v. Davis, 392 So. 2d 1304, 1305 (Fla. 1980). No motion for rehearing or reinstatement will be entertained by this Court.
