LARRY R. PRUNTY,
Appellant,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA,
Appellee.
_____________________________
On appeal from the Circuit Court for Alachua County.
Mark W. Moseley, Judge.
August 28, 2020
PER CURIAM.
AFFIRMED. See Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.850(b)(1) (providing that
Rule 3.850 motions must be filed within two years after the
judgment and sentence become final unless “the facts on which the
claim is predicated were unknown to the movant or the movant’s
attorney and could not have been ascertained by the exercise of
due diligence, and the claim is made within 2 years of the time the
new facts were or could have been discovered with the exercise of
due diligence”); Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.850(h)(2) (providing that “a court
may dismiss a second or successive motion if the court finds that
it fails to allege new or different grounds for relief and the prior
determination was on the merits”).
This is Appellant’s fourth postconviction appeal or petition
following his 2012 judgment and sentence for home invasion
robbery. Appellant is warned that any future filings that this
Court determines to be frivolous or malicious may result in the
imposition of sanctions, including a prohibition against any
further pro se filings in this Court and a referral to the appropriate
institution for disciplinary procedures. See § 944.279, Fla. Stat.
(2019) (providing that “[a] prisoner who is found by a court to have
brought a frivolous or malicious suit, action, claim, proceeding, or
appeal . . . is subject to disciplinary procedures pursuant to the
rules of the Department of Corrections”).
ROWE, WINOKUR, and NORDBY, JJ., concur.
_____________________________
Not final until disposition of any timely and
authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
9.331.
