Opinion

Case No. SC05-380.

September 13, 2005.

Lower Tribunal No. 2D04-5717.


To the extent that petitioner seeks to have his appeal reinstated in the DCA, petitioner has failed to show a clear legal right; and the petition is denied. See Huffmann v. State, 813 So. 2d 10, 11 (Fla. 2000) (stating that in order to be entitled to a writ of mandamus, petitioner must show clear legal right to performance of requested act, that respondent has indisputable legal duty to perform that act, and that no other adequate remedy exists.). Moreover, to the extent that petitioner seeks review of decisions of the trial court, the petition is denied. See Migliore v. City of Lauderhill, 415 So. 2d 62, 63 (Fla. 4th DCA 1982), approved 431 So. 2d 986 (Fla. 1983) (stating that mandamus is not an appropriate vehicle for review of a merely erroneous decision).

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