Michael J. Giles v. State of Florida

Opinion

FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA

_____________________________

No. 1D18-1110

MICHAEL J. GILES,

Petitioner,

v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

Respondent.

_____________________________

Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus – Original Jurisdiction.

February 5, 2019

PER CURIAM.

The writ of habeas corpus alleging ineffectiveness of appellate counsel is denied as untimely, pursuant to rule 9.141(d)(5), Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Partridge v. Moore, 768 So. 2d 1128 (Fla. 1st DCA 2000). Even if we were to reach the merits, appellate counsel is not ineffective for failure to raise every conceivable nonfrivolous issue. See Valentine v. State, 98 So. 3d 44, 57 (Fla. 2012).

BILBREY, WINOKUR, and JAY, JJ., concur.

_____________________________

Not final until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or 9.331.
