ON CONFESSION OF ERROR

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
In La-Casse v. State, 223 So.3d 1129, 1129 (Fla. 3d DCA 2017), this Court reversed the trial court's order precluding Luis La-Casse from filing any further pro se post-conviction pleadings in lower court case number F04-29879, and remanded for entry of a Show Cause Order "to provide La-Casse the opportunity to demonstrate why an order precluding pro se filings should not be entered." On remand, on October 12, 2017, the trial court entered a Show Cause Order.
In November 2017, La-Casse filed a timely response to the Show Cause Order. La-Casse later filed an amended response. For reasons that are unclear in the record, the trial court entered two separate orders "mooting" both La-Casse's response and amended response to the Show Cause Order. Indeed, the trial court docket does not reflect that the trial court, on remand, ever issued an order determining whether La-Casse should be precluded from further pro se filings in lower court case number F04-29879.
Based on the record before us and the State's proper and commendable confession of error that the trial court incorrectly mooted La-Casse's responses to the Show Cause Order, we reverse and remand for further proceedings. On remand, the trial court should consider La-Casse's amended response to the trial court's October 12, 2017 Show Cause Order, and adjudicate whether La-Casse should be precluded from further pro se filings in lower case number F04-29879. This Court expresses no opinion on that issue.
Reversed and remanded.
