Head Matter:
Anthony LITCHMORE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 2D12-800.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
Sept. 14, 2012.

Opinion:
KHOUZAM, Judge.
Anthony Litchmore appeals the summary denial of his motion for postconviction relief filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. The postcon-viction court ruled that the motion was untimely, and we agree. See Barrios-Cruz v. State, 63 So.3d 868 (Fla. 2d DCA 2011). As we did in Barrios-Cruz, we hold that Padilla v. Kentucky, — U.S. —, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), does not apply retroactively in post-conviction proceedings, and we certify the following question of great public importance:
SHOULD THE RULING IN PADILLA v. KENTUCKY, — U.S. —, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), BE APPLIED RETROACTIVELY IN POSTCONVICTION PROCEEDINGS?
Affirmed.
