Opinion

Case No. SC11-1144.

July 15, 2011.

Lower Tribunal No(s). 3D11-197, 3D11-799, 03-2561.


The petitioner has filed an extraordinary writ petition with the Court. To the extent the petitioner seeks a writ of prohibition, the petition is hereby denied because the petitioner has failed to demonstrate that a lower court is attempting to act in excess of its jurisdiction.See Mandico v. Taos Constr., Inc., 605 So. 2d 850 (Fla. 1992); English v. McCrary, 348 So. 2d 293 (Fla. 1977). To the extent the petitioner seeks to invoke the Court's all writs jurisdiction, the petition is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. 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); See also Florida Senate v. Graham, 412 So. 2d 360, 361 (Fla. 1982) (stating that "all writs" jurisdiction permits review of matters and issuance of writs necessary to aid in the exercise of the Court's "ultimate jurisdiction").

PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur.
