969 So. 2d 1013 (Fla. 2007)

Opinion

No. SC07-1719.

October 26, 2007.

Lower Tribunal No(s). 1D06-5884.


To the extent that petitioner seeks to invoke this Court's all writs jurisdiction, the petition is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. See St. Paul Title Ins. Corp. v. Davis, 392 So. 2d 1304, 1305 (Fla. 1980) (stating that "all writs provision of [article V,] section 3(b)(7) [of the Florida Constitution] does not confer added appellate jurisdiction on this Court, and this Court's all writs power cannot be used as an independent basis of jurisdiction as petitioner is hereby seeking to use it").

To the extent that petitioner seeks a writ of mandamus to compel the manner in which the First District Court of Appeal adjudicates the appeal, the petition is denied pursuant to Huffman v. State, 813 So. 2d 10, 11 (Fla. 2000) ("In order to be entitled to a writ of mandamus the petitioner must have a clear legal right to the requested relief, the respondent must have an indisputable legal duty to perform the requested action, and the petitioner must have no other adequate remedy available.").

WELLS, ANSTEAD, QUINCE, CANTERO, and BELL, JJ., concur.
