The petition is supported by an affidavit of trial counsel. The state does not object to the belated appeal. Accordingly, we grant the request for a belated appeal and remand to the trial court. The trial court shall treat this court’s mandate as the notice of appeal. Fla. R.App. P. 9.140(j)(5)(D). If petitioner qualifies for appointed counsel, the trial court shall appoint counsel to represent petitioner on appeal.
