Wesley v. Hobbs (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseWhile incarcerated at a prison facility in Lee County, Appellant filed a pro se petition to correct an illegal sentence in the Lee County Circuit Court. The circuit court denied the petition. Appellant filed a “motion for reconsideration,” seeking leave to file a belated reply brief. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal and mooted the motion because Appellant’s petition to correct his sentence, which was imposed in Nevada County, was filed in the wrong court. Only the trial court in Nevada County had authority to grant the relief sought, and therefore, the Lee County Circuit Court lacked jurisdiction to grant relief.
