_____________________________
DAVID J LINDSAY,
Appellant,
v.
WARDEN EDWARDS and FLORIDA
DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS,
Appellees.
_____________________________
On appeal from the Circuit Court for Union County.
Denise Ferrero, Judge.
February 18, 2020
PER CURIAM.
We grant the appellees’ motion to dismiss filed December 17,
2019. The Florida Department of Corrections released the
appellant from its custody on October 18, 2019, upon the
expiration of the appellant’s sentence. There was no ensuing
supervision. The appellant in this case challenges the transfer of
his habeas petition to the jurisdiction from which his conviction
and sentence originated. We dismiss the appeal as moot. Given the
dismissal, we deny as moot the appellees’ December 2, 2019,
motion for extension of time to file an answer brief.
WOLF, ROWE, and TANENBAUM, JJ., concur.
_____________________________
Not final until disposition of any timely and
authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
9.331.
