FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA _____________________________ No. 1D20-1612 _____________________________ JULIUS KEITH KNOTT, Petitioner, v. STATE OF FLORIDA, Respondent. _____________________________ Petition for Belated Appeal—Original Jurisdiction. August 3, 2020 PER CURIAM. Because the purpose of a motion filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(b)(2) “is to provide a mechanism to raise and preserve all sentencing errors” for direct appeal, Harvey v. State, 848 So. 2d 1060, 1066 (Fla. 2003) (Pariente, J., specially concurring), the order is not separately appealable. Accordingly, this petition seeking a belated appeal from the order denying Petitioner’s rule 3.800(b)(2) motion, which was filed in his direct appeal, 1D18-2147, is hereby dismissed as unauthorized. OSTERHAUS, KELSEY, and JAY, JJ., concur. _____________________________ Not final until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or 9.331. _____________________________ Julius Keith Knott, pro se, Petitioner. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent. 2
