Edwin Gene WILLIAM, Petitioner, v. Lawson LAMAR, etc., Respondent.
    No. 82-542.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    June 9, 1982.
    Edwin Gene William, pro se.
    No appearance for respondent.
   COWART, Judge.

Petitioner, serving fifty-one weeks in the county jail as a condition of probation, seeks by petition for writ of mandamus to have this court order jail officials to give him statutory gain time under section 951.-21, Florida Statutes (1981). The statute does not apply to incarceration as a condition of probation, as it is not a “sentence.” Heatherington v. State, 388 So.2d 1354 (Fla. 5th DCA 1980); Adams v. State, 387 So.2d 498 (Fla. 5th DCA 1980). The petition for mandamus is

DENIED.

FRANK D. UPCHURCH, Jr., and SHARP, JJ., concur.
