Torres v. State , 2012 Fla. App. LEXIS 7413 ( 2012 )


Menu:
  • NORTHCUTT, Judge.

    Antonio Torres appeals the summary dismissal of his motion for postconviction relief filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. The postconviction court ruled that the motion was untimely, and we agree. See Barrios-Cruz v. State, 63 So.3d 868 (Fla. 2d DCA 2011). As we did in Barrios-Cruz, we hold that Padilla v. Kentucky, — U.S. —, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), does not apply retroactively in postconviction proceedings, and we certify the following question of great public importance:

    SHOULD THE RULING IN Padilla v. Kentucky, — U.S.—, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), BE APPLIED RETROACTIVELY IN POSTCONVICTION PROCEEDINGS?

    Affirmed.

    SILBERMAN, C.J., and CRENSHAW, J., Concur.
