Edward T. DOUGLAS, Petitioner, v. The STATE of Florida, Respondent.
    No. 3D15-875.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    April 29, 2015.
    Douglas T. Edwards, in proper person.
    Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, for respondent.
    Before WELLS, ROTHENBERG and EMAS, JJ.
   WELLS, Judge.

Douglas Edwards files this petition for writ of mandamus to compel the trial court to rule on his pending postconviction motions filed under Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure 3.800 and 3.850. Because the record below fails to demonstrate that either his Rule 3.850 motion, dated July 29, 2009, or his Rule 3.800 motion, dated October 28, 2014, was ever filed below, we deny the petition without prejudice to petitioner refiling these motions nunc pro tunc in the lower court.
