    _____________________________
    STEVEN FRANCIS D'AMICO,
    Appellant,
    v.
    ROBERT E. SMITH, Warden,
    Appellee.
    _____________________________
    On appeal from the Circuit Court for Union County.
    David P. Kreider, Judge.
    December 28, 2018
    PER CURIAM.
    We affirm the amended order transferring Appellant’s
    petition for writ of habeas corpus to the circuit in which Appellant
    was convicted and sentenced. See Torres v. State, 
    208 So. 3d 831
    ,
    831 (Fla. 1st DCA 2017) (affirming the order transferring a habeas
    petition because the appellant challenged the sufficiency of the
    charging instrument therein); Baker v. State, 
    164 So. 3d 38
    , 39
    (Fla. 3d DCA 2015) (“[T]he court of conviction, has jurisdiction over
    Baker’s habeas petition because the petition challenges the
    sufficiency of the charging document which amounts to a collateral
    attack on Baker’s 1996 conviction.”).
    AFFIRMED.
    WOLF, LEWIS, and WETHERELL, JJ., concur.
    _____________________________
    Not final until disposition of any timely and
    authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
    9.331.
