| 02/28/2022 | Order Per Section 16(b)(10)b., Fla. Const. | Article I, section 16(b)(10)b. of the Florida Constitution provides that all state-level appeals and collateral attacks on any judgment must be complete within two years from the date of appeal in non-capital cases unless a court enters an order with specific findings as to why the court was unable to comply and the circumstances causing the delay. Pursuant to the administrative procedures and definitions set forth in Supreme Court of Florida Order No. AOSC19-76, this case was not completed within the time frame required by Article I, section 16(b)(10)b. The following circumstances contributed to the continuing review of this case and the time required for a final decision exceeding two years: the time to complete this appeal was shortened to 117 days by virtue of appellant’s prior appeal in case number 4D19-3301. The court notes, however, that this particular appeal was completed in less than eight months. |
