District Court of Appeal of Florida January 25, 2000, No. 1D99-3910 (Jones v. Moore)

PER CURIAM.

Willie James Jones seeks a belated appeal, stating that he timely gave a notice of appeal to prison officials for mailing but the notice never reached its intended destination, the clerk of the circuit court. The state opposes the petition on authority of Alterisio v. State, 704 So.2d 164 (Fla. 5th DCA 1997).
