Opinion filed October 28, 2016
Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus,
A Case of Original Jurisdiction.
Vantice Lee Beshears, Jr., Ocala, pro se.
No Appearance for Respondent.
PER CURIAM.
Vantice Lee Beshears, Jr., petitions this court seeking a writ of habeas corpus,
challenging the trial court's denial of his motion for post-trial release. We note that,
pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.140(h), appeals concerning post-trial
release must be raised by a motion in this court, not as a petition for habeas relief. Hirsch
v. State, 864 So. 2d 41 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003); DeGolyer v. Wainwright, 318 So. 2d 518,
519 (Fla. 1st DCA 1975). Accordingly, we construe the petition as a motion and deny it
without further discussion.
PETITION CONSTRUED as MOTION and DENIED.
SAWAYA, EVANDER and WALLIS, JJ., concur.
