Eric KAPLAN, D.C., Petitioner, v. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, Respondent.
    No. 1D04-4342.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Nov. 5, 2004.
    Edwin A. Bayo of GrayRobinson, P.A., Tallahassee, for petitioner.
    No appearance for respondent.
   PER CURIAM.

The petition for writ of mandamus is denied as legally insufficient. Mandamus will lie to require the performance of a ministerial duty imposed by law on a public official or agency. See Sancho v. Joanos, 715 So.2d 382 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998). However, petitioner has failed to identify any legal authority imposing on the Department of Health a clear and indisputable duty to take the action he seeks to compel.

PETITION DENIED.

BOOTH, BARFIELD and ALLEN, JJ., concur.
