Case No. SC07-260 (Fla. Apr. 2, 2007)

Opinion

Case No. SC07-260.

April 2, 2007.

Lower Tribunal No. 5D07-157.


To the extent that the Petitioner seeks prohibition relief, the petition is hereby denied. See Fischer v. Knuck, 497 So. 2d 240, 242 (Fla. 1986) (holding that "[a] verified motion for disqualification must contain an actual factual foundation for the alleged fear of prejudice," and finding that the petitioner's subjective fears, as alleged, were not reasonably sufficient to justify a well-founded fear of prejudice);see also 5-H Corp. v. Padovano, 708 So. 2d 244, 248-49 (Fla. 1997).

To the extent the Petitioner seeks to invoke this 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) (stating that "neither [petitioner] cites 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 petitions").

All motions and requests for relief are hereby denied as moot.

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